    I meant to add "harder runner".

    I don't see James Connor when I see Jaylen Warren. I see more MJD.

    5-8 vs 6-1, no not really. Probably should have asked "Does anyone agree?" Both straight ahead runners , not shifty, so there's that.

    I think the best comparison between the 2 is that they both were #30.

    Let's just hope He hangs onto the ball, and I will like Him just fine. I've seen Him put the ball on the ground twice (counting preseason) , and hard to judge a guy by a whole 19 rushes.

    I thought the same thing. He's little more of straight line runner than MJD was, from what I remember. But overall, that's who came to mind.

    Be great if we could get Barry Foster production out of him.

    I’m sure @S.T.D@S.T.D remembers Foster with great fondness.

    I’ll take Foster over Najee any day. That dude hit the hole hard and was a load to bring down. Had great instincts too. What round did we draft him in? Third?

    You are correct! Goes to show you can find a great RB in the later rounds.

    Agreed. Even though I like Najee, and I'm glad to have Him on the team.....I was ,and always have been against drafting a RB, or a Wr in the 1st round. Lots of My old post will show that. Way too many come out every year.

    I’m afraid Najee is heading to Bustville and not the Bustville in Canton. Hope I’m wrong.

    I am impressed with Warren he does hit it hard and gets what he can with great effort.

    He does remind me of Barry Foster or to go way back Newsome from the Cowboys .

    Too bad he didn t have a nickname like Bam
