RB Michael Weber (New Jersey Generals)

Who?

Flamed out in college and was co converted to FB. Ended up having a problem with the bottle...

You suck, McBain!

Mark Ingram alabama 2009. Weber is also very similar to Ingram and Meyer should give him the ball more. Dobbins is similar to Trent Richardson. Both undersized but good runners.

Richardson was almost 20lbs heavier than Dobbins. Not really undersized

Mike is peaking at just the right time. He and Dobbins are a powerful one - two punch.

I think Mike's gone. Played a nice game last night against USC in a somewhat limited role.

He’s in a tough spot. Given his shoulder questions, spotty pass catching, and limited role this past year it’s hard to imagine him going higher than late round. If he sticks around it’s in a continued limited role behind a potential all-timer.

I tend to agree with you.

Kinda Antonio Pittman situation, no? Pittman was never going to be a high draft pick, but saw the writing on the wall with Beanie around. Weber has to know he's not getting the starting job back so he might as well get paid.

I sort of tend to agree. His and Pittman's situations are about equal to being understudy to the likes of actor Sir Lawrence Olivier.

Whatever his decision, I can't help but wish him the best. Good luck, Mike!

All I can think about is a Nick Chubb / Sony Michel situation if he stays. That worked well...

 

[Powair7s]

I think he should have been getting more carries. Love dobbins but Weber can take over a game. We needed some of that last year.

 

[sparcboxbuck]

I think he stays to split reps... and shows what he can do on two healthy hammys.

2018: ground-and-pound with legitimate play-action?

Nice job by #24 there. Got the horsecollar with one hand, the facemask with the other, and Weber still puts him on a poster.
