    James "China Doll" Conner - good to above average when healthy; the problem is he's healthy about 30% of the season

    Benny Snell - prototypical practice squad player. way overdrafted imo.

    Jaylen Samuels - has shown flashes in the past as a receiver but not a great runner

    Anthony McFarland - too early to tell but shows speed but so far lacks vision and power

    Overall this may be the worst RB corp in the league, and almost definitely in Steelers history. Can anyone else think of one that was worse?

    The Redman/Dwyer years were the worst RB corps in Steelers History.

    Do you like anything about the Steelers or just like starting Trollish threads?

    Someone here predicted (actually drove everyone nuts about it) Redman would have a 5+ yards per carry average.
    Lol

    We should forfeit the season!

    Our running backs suck!

    We can't win!

    Look at me!

    Redman couldn't average 5 yards per carry if he lined up 4 yards offsides.

    But, I really think Samuels could develop into a true halfback passer.

    Came here to say this very same thing. The difference is they looked good at times due to the Oline.

    Redman was really bad.

    Redman scored a TD in the Superbowl. That team made the Superbowl....

    Yep. Issac Redman and Jonathan Dwyer were awful.

    These guys sit on the bench next to D. Watt for the most part. They rotate in to block for Ben.
