Todd Gurley in 2016 on a poorly coached offense and a weak offensive line:

278 carries, 885 yards, 3.2 ypc.

Gurley in 2017 after McVay was hired (and the addition of Andrew Whitworth at OT)

279 carries, 1,305 yards, 4.7 ypc. (he also had 64 catches for 788 yards)

Kubiak + Linderbaum = mark my words. Jeanty will have a big year.

Sure fuckin hope so.

Too soon?

He went 6th overall and makes 10 million bucks at RB.

Anything less than a "big year" would fuckin suck.

$8.2M this year against the cap; $8.9M per year over 4 years—which is 15th in the NFL. After Robinson and Gibbs get paid, that will be 17th in the NFL. J. Love at $13.3M per year already makes Jeanty look cheap. You can doubt but I like his ROI chances this year.

His career was certainly over too soon after that.

Sounds ideal. Prime Gurley was fun to watch at Georgia and with the Rams.

It also reinforces why a top ten draft pick on a running back isn't good business.
