I'm not even gonna lie I am pissed off lendale white didnt go in the first round. I dont even know why he didnt. What do all of you think?

iono it seems like teams was going mainly for defense and i don't think they was feelin lendales work ethic or whateva.

yeah I noticed that too. He said that at the end of the rosebowl he was 252 pounds, now he is 239 he said. He also said if anyone questions his work ethic then look at the rosebowl tape, or the usc vs. oklahoma game, no one gets that good by just sitting down

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am officially a tennessee titans fan now. Vince Young AND Lendale White. Thats dangerous right there

Lendale white aint that nice... i big back is more likely 2 have success in college but it gets harda 4 them in tha NFL cuz every else is big... n tha game becomes 2 fast 4 them... imo unless yo similar jerome bettis big half backs arnt as succesful in tha NFL... plus lendale white is weak... hope tha weight he loss made him quicker

titans are the shit now

It aint like he gonna be another Eddie George or somethin, but I was shocked to he went so late, shit Marcus Vick wasnt even drafted at all.

Yeah dats true, but think like 10 years from now, if he still with them he could be the next jerome bettis, but alot smaller if he keeps losin weight. H.O.V yeah I know I thought marcus vick would at least go somewhere:eek: . He's really good, tha only thing that messed him really up was that he got a real bad attitude, and he kicked that guy from louisville on the ground. They prolly dont want him to be the next T.O.

his weight n shit worried alot of people

He gonna have to get bigger in the leauge anywayz.

exactly why wouldnt you want a big runnin back, hes not gonna get injured as easy. Oh did you hear about marcus vick??? The miami dolphins invited him to their mini camp this weekend.

thses coaches put to much stock in these stupid COMBINES and Mini camp workouts...i mean Brady slipped into the 6th round......a good football player doesn't have to bench 245 17 times to be good, or run a 4.4 40. i think those combines are getting stpuid now...you have to look at the thier body of work in college than make a good decision

yea, a good player is just a good player, regardless of size, strenght and speed. Some people are just natural, and have good football instinct.

u think they havnt thot of that? they dont pick playas based on they combine results... thats how that man who tied tha record 4 most bench reps didnt get drafted... & big runnin backs aint shit if they cant run

Whites big knocks:

Teams were scared of Bush and gameplanned for Bush and Lienart. White got a slight advantage.

the bigger issues:

he refused to run at his pro-day. and to this day USC Pete Carroll said he has never timed White in a 40. Nobody knows how fast or slow he is. He then repped 15 times on 225. THE PUNTER REPPED 14 TIMES.

Thats pathetic for a POWER back to only rep one more time than White. Also White was said to have an attitude when asked about running and testing his vertical.

All of those factors combine lead me to believe he will be another T.J. Duckett.

And for those idiots mentioning Marcus Vick. Have you ever WATCHED HIM PLAY? There is no way in hell he'd even be considered drafted if his last name wasn't Vick. Marcus was NOT A GOOD QB in college, and was actually kicked off the team twice! He stomped on Elvis Dumervilles leg after a plan when Dumerville was down (intentionally) amongst other things. This guy is only rated because of his brothers name, and has a horrible attitude. He wont ever last a full season on an nfl roster.

He's like Sean Taylor but WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY less talented( in terms of legal issues constantly)

i agree about the combines getting over rated but i disagree about looking at a players college career on deciding what type of pro their going to be...... its to many players who were great in college and ass in the league to say that you have to look at their body of work in college......truthfully i think players that are highly rated all have the potential to be great pro players... i think some just dont have that inner drive to work hard like other do... i can tell you personnaly that lendale is one big headed vein nigga..... my cousin is a o linemen at usc... look out for hime next year he starting at left guard.... Chillo Rachell... but anyway thats besides the point.... I chiiled with lendale and winston justice on many accosions and them niggas are both some arrrogant ass niggas.... hopefully this draft experince humble them....

AGIAN, who cares who bench pressed something 5,000 times. The point is white scored more Td's in college than bush, point blank. I bet barry sanders didn't have some CRAZY bench press weight but he turned out alright...bush won't even be an everyday back next year anyway, cause he's a little small...The year after he should be alright after a little weight gain....and as far as the attitude, lol we're talking about pro sports, there's an attitude eveywhere you turn

good luck to your cousin....many star players in college or the pro's have a big head. If you don't look at the players college career to decide what type of talent they have than where do you look?

^^ yet again you show your lack of football knowledge.

Barry Sanders is NO WHERE close to a Lendale White.

Lendale White scored more td's b/c everyone focused on Bush, and White scored from close in td's. He's a goal line back. He'll be just like every other highly touted 2nd runningback in college.

And Bush is small? 6' 205 is small? Emmitt smith 5'9 205, Barry Sanders 5'8 210.

lol

^^^^ True......

good luck to your cousin....many star players in college or the pro's have a big head. If you don't look at the players college career to decide what type of talent they have than where do you look?


im not saying that you're not suppose to look to there college carrers.... you have to do that of course.... im saying that just looking at there college careers alone doesnt tell if that certain player is going to have succes in the pros

well yeah, we can't predict the future. Really, i just think that the combines are making certain players get more recognition in the draft than they deserve...Like i was watching espn and they was saying mario williams didn't even get a sack againt any of the top ten teams in the league!! that's crazy..

^^^^ yeah i was trippin on that shit to....but i guess both ways are a lil over rated.... but especially the combine..... it takes way more than just being fast to play in the nfl

All I got to say is... Did you watch Lindale play while at USC.. he was a steal in the 2nd round if you ask me.. Now about players doing good at the combine and even players dominating in college.. Doesn't mean squat in the NFL.. look at the heisman winners going back to Barry Sanders... excluding Bush and Leinart... with the exception of Charles Woodson, Ricky Davis and Carson Palmer.. the rest of them have been bust.. Not saying that Reggie is in that catagory but lets see him be great before we say he's great.. I think he and Lindale will be excellent running backs..

White had tha advatage over bush cuz no1 spent much time gameplannin on him... n he was tha back in goaline situations... and Lindele white wont b an every down back neitha... 5 bux says Bush gets more carries... and presonality is everything... coaches look for team leaders and professionals... cuz playin in tha NFL is a year round thing... u dont just show up on sundays

Lendale White= T.J Duckett

dog, no one said bench press doesn't matter. You're taking things too Literal.
all i'm saying is that i'm not gonna take player X over player Y cause player X can bench press more....technique only takes you so far? how about, strength only take you so far. Once you get into the NFL everybodies strong, so the variation between strength is alot closer than the variation between skills. Plus, New orle ans and tennesee didn't draft lendale and bush cause they can block. How you figure teams didn't spend much time gameplanning lendale? what kind shit you smoking dog? do you watch college football? put ya 5 chump dollars up and we'll see who gets more carries, Lendale or Bush

Ya'll realize NIETHER of them will be the #1 back this year.

Duece is #1 on their depth chart
then Bush
Then Stecker
Then Michael Bennett

Chris Brown/ Travis Henry will be #1
^^^ of them or Lendale would be #2

Neither of them will get more than 150 carries most likely.

that's a fair observation, but lendale has more of a chance cause neither Henry or Brown are Hard runners. they dance and move but they don't get the tough yards on like 2 and 3on the 4 yard line type shit....plus henry be fumbleing and shit. It'll be harder for bush to crack the top running spot caus deuce is nice, ve he has a chance. Bush will get most of hus touches on kick off return, punt return and MAYBE a little in a slot WR position

Bush got a guaranteed spot @ 3DRB imo... wat does White have? watchu want put on this bet? il put any money(unfortunatley RW cash) down that bush will have more carries before eitha of em get injured
