Lets at least get to the 4th preseason game before we call the guy a bust. ;)

He'll be alright but if he's not producing results mid-way through next year, then maybe its time to move on.

Conner & Samuels are more home run hitters and gadget type of guys, there's nothing wrong with getting a bruiser workhorse into the rotation to help punish/deflate defenses in the second half. Give him a little time before totally writing him off.

Conner is definitely not a home run hitter or gadget type guy. Conner is a very good every down RB, with just the right amount of power and quick feet.
Snell is a bruising RB, hopefully maybe he can come in on short yardage plays and take some of those type plays and hit off of Conner.

You're right, Conner isn't a home run hitter. And they'll be using Samuels for gadget plays. I guess I wouldn't consider Samuels a home run hitter either but he sure seems to have a nose for the end zone.
 
I know that it's just a video game, but I'm sure hoping our playbook has more plays than this years Madden.

JaySam is a beast in spread formations - running and catching out of the backfield. Mr. Conner, on the game, has enough speed to break away if he gets to the second level untouched.

Young Benny, has basically the same attributes as JC, but he's a rook - so his ratings are no where as good...
 
Snell will get some work, but he needs to muscle up. He will be much more NFL ready next year. This year is a learning year for him.
 
And JuJu is slow for a WR according to his 40 time yet he still blows by defenders that have the angle on him. Freaking amazing!

Conner can find the end zone too. No trouble in that department. Both should continue being a solid one two punch on the field.

You can't judge Snell on speed. He's a power back. I said it in the draft thread and I'll say it again... he's the guy you bring in to seal a game and run the clock out when you are ahead. The problem I see is that the Steelers drafted him for that but will they use him for that? I've been a little surprised at how easily he goes down. But he's still new to the competition. I would be shocked if he were cut so soon.

Has he impressed you as a power back in the NFL? I have not seen him bowling guys over or moving a pile.

It's two games into the preseason of his first NFL season........pump your brakes or we could have another Polamalu gaffe to hang over your head for another decade because it's clear this board is stuck with your self fart sniffing analysis

Rolmao. Snell won’t sniff the hall of fame. Well see how he does on Sunday. Another 3.3 yards per carry performance and I can guess who will be on his lap in this forum.

Well then the Steelers won't add him to the 53 if your *** essment is accurate.

Would you like to make a 30 day ban bet on if he makes the roster? I would of course be saying he does and if you stand by your *** essment he doesn't
