My father in law got his Masters from Arizona State.   When my wife was in high school she live in Tempe for a year while her dad was taking his classes.

You don't have to go back neeeearly that far to see that issue on the Browns roster.

Vision issues being mentioned gives me the bubble guts. TRich sucked for just that reason.

"for boring retorts you are suited, in those - your instincts are rooted"

"yes, no, I don't like the show, we've met in person, and you don't laugh much, I know"

sigh. I'm just not a fan. Young strange geniuses smarting off to each other all the time just isn't funny to me.

Yea, no..that's just stupid.

The Mighty F = ma

This equation is one of the most useful in classical physics. It is a concise statement of Isaac Newton's Second Law of Motion, holding both the proportions and vectors of the Second Law. It translates as:

The net force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration of the object.

Or some simply say:

Force equals mass times acceleration.

• Or why some guys are just harder to tackle and just get away, see I wasn't asleep during all of my physics classes. 

@tour2ma said:

There is more than one route to a 4.4. Simplified they are:

• fast acceleration (burst) with lower top end, and
• slower, but more sustained acceleration to a higher top end speed.

The fast accelerating, early speed RBs are the ones who "breakaway."

NOTE: I stand confused. The write you posted mentioned that size limits his breakaway speed...except he runs a 4.4 allegedly. Just confusing.

Cal, the write up was for Bell. So it was a knock on Bell.

If he was in the 4th round, by golly, -what a steal. I really think his character and work ethic would get him far in the pros, and he

has some serious ability as a power rb. Not perfect, or he'd go in the top half of the second round, even sneak into the first round then. I wonder how much running with a lower pad level can be coached. I ain't got no ideaer.

That's all, folks. My rb pick for the Browns' draft.

For what round?   3rd or 4th perhaps?

career than in college. I don't know about the vision - not sure a power back has to have it that much. ? Rather than a 2nd round pick for bell, I could see drafting this kid - 3rd/4th/5th? round.

Scarbrough - though - here's what I read:

https://www.prideofdetroit.com/2017/12/28/16823916/2018-draft-scouting-profile-alabama-running-back-bo-scarbrough

Medicals and Character

Scarbrough served a four-game suspension as a freshman for the Tide, reportedly due to an NCAA issue related to amateurism. He also tore his ACL that season, the first of several major issues during his Alabama career. It wasn’t his first injured season, though, as he came to Alabama with a reputation of being both a freak athlete (and five-star prospect), and a high injury risk.

"Scarbrough has yet to play a full season of high school football. He broke his ankle in his freshman season, tore his ACL as a sophomore and suffered a high-ankle sprain last year. All three injuries cut his seasons short."

Scarbrough broke out after returning from that ACL tear, but was once again injured in 2016, this time during the National Championship game. Scarbrough was a beast in the game, but ended up breaking his leg and the Tide struggled after his departure. 2017 didn’t start off well, missing time with illness before soundly losing a large portion of his carries to Damien Harris. Scarbrough still saw decent production, but Nick Saban wisely limited his touches to maintain his health.
