|

|
Just think about this: This has to be the first time that a backup RB in college becomes a top 5 pick in the draft.
Ronnie Brown has madd skills dont get me wrong. But its kind of weird that he was a backup in college and now he is a top 5 pick.
Any other times that a player was a backup in college and became a top pick in the draft? _________________ Team Romo, Beware of DWare, *SuperStar*DEZ |

| It's not like he was a true second stringer...he and Caddy were more like 1 and 1A and both will be very good NFL backs. |

But is the more complete back out of the two but Caddillac has better vision and elusiveness. _________________ POINT PROVEN!!!! |

| Yes Ronnie was at AUB first. He was a 5th year senior. I can't remember who started his freshman year though. Might have been Rudi Johnson. |

| And he's definitely going top 5 because? He won't fall far but he realistically can fall out of the top 5. |

Don't come in these forums guessing and saying you know. You should join a NHL forum because they're taking the year off, so you can have time learn about hockey and try to make sense in there forum.[/quote] _________________ POINT PROVEN!!!! |

There is a reason Carnell Williams started....
he was the better back, Brown went from 3rd rated RB to 1st after a workout....
that shows you how obsessed people are with numbers
Watching both. Both can dominate games, but Carnell is still the better back |

I think Cadillac's the better back, but Brown will go first.
I've been wondering...
How much does the name "Cadillac" factor into a team's draft strategy? Just think of the marketing of Williams once he's in the NFL.
Any thoughts? _________________
