Seider recently had effusive praise for Jonaz Walton.

Also heard on a podcast that Landau has a proprietary measure of explosiveness and Walton has the highest number he's ever seen (or something to this affect, not a direct quote).

So how do the snaps get split between Williams, James, Young and Walton?

Do you think we may do some 2 back sets? Williams and James are particularly good pass catchers, I could see some creative plays utilizing the running backs with no real proven pass catching TE.

Thoughts?

The RB room is stacked

Nolan James seems to be the favorite to spell Williams. Kedren Young is listed at 234lbs! He is coming back from an ACL. Walton is already turning heads. Osborne is described as 'explosive'.

Call me crazy but I don't see a meaningful drop in RB production this year, especially behind that O-line.

Yes, he said it was on par with Bo Jackson, Adrian Peterson and Saquon Barkley

Has Denbrock ever run 2-back sets?

As for carries, those that produce will earn them.

Williams and James will get the first crack at those carries.

Prosise and Adams were a very good duo for him

Yes, but I don't remember them playing much in 2 back sets. They were more like Love and Price, in

I'm envisioning something like Love's freshman year for Walton barring injuries.

Return game, few 3-7 carries a game.

And no, I don't recall Denbrock playing 2 backs.

There were a few 2 back sets in the Miami game last year
