Current and Past Fullbacks Who Should Have Been Starting Power Backs in the NFL

4.48 is CM speed......

Not quite. CM ran a 4.48 laser. Vardell ran it hand timed, so he probably ran around 4.53-4.58 range laser timed. Still NFL RB speed, especially at 6'2-230!

Nice Video of Tommy Don, I didnt know he played for the 49ers and lions after the browns. Such a talented back...

I’m sure Don remembers this guy. It would’ve been nice to see him lined up deep as a tailback to get momentum going could’ve rushed for 1000 yards.

Don mentioned Suhey in the previous thread and he was awesome. It’s amazing he had so much production while in the same backfield as Walter Payton. If you look closely in the highlights, Payton was actually lead blocking for him many times. That’s the way I should be instead of rotating in tiny multiple little tailbacks have a suhey or Muster type to soften the defense up. I doubt a coach could get any of these diva running backs to lead block in today’s game.

There’s also some Penn State highlights I miss the days of the big white fullbacks at PSU.
