receiver and blocker he is fantastic.

he is not too good to get dirty on a block.

It was a pleasure to watch him for 8 seasons here. He is still in pretty awesome shape, and still ran for 898 yards on his lowest amount of carries since 2011

There was a guy on the Falcons board who openly campaigned for us to draft him way back when. - David Feb 12, 10:46 13
- he has been mostly underrated his entire career. - groiny Feb 12, 10:49 9
  - If he'd played in the 90s, he'd be on Wheaties boxes. He's the deluxe version of Eddie George. -- nm - David Feb 12, 10:53 8
    - I've always seen him as more of a Ricky Watters. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 12, 10:55 7
      - That's a good comparison, too. - David Feb 12, 10:58
      - eh, I think he is closer to Faulk than Watters. -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 10:56 5
        
        He's too tall and not talented enough for that. Faulk's one of the three best I've ever seen. - David Feb 12, 11:00 1
        
        I can buy into the Edge compare. - groiny Feb 12, 11:04
        
        but, I never liked Watters all that much. -- nm - groiny Feb 12, 11:00 2
        
        Watters and Forte are near the top of my list of underappreciated guys. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 12, 11:02 1
        
        Watters played on some pretty awesome offensive teams. - groiny Feb 12, 11:06
- Oh hey, I have a PFF question for you - Strongbad Feb 12, 10:48 2
  - I'm going to miss being able to answer these. I really hope they change their mind on this nonsense. - David Feb 12, 10:52 1
    - Cool, thanks. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 12, 10:54
