Why don't you think Helu is a consistent 20+ carry back?
Helu has demonstrated this ability more then Royster has.
Helu has actually carried the ball 20+ times 4 games, Royster on the other hand has yet to carry it over 20 times.
I gotta disagree with you on the strength and hands though.
I think Helu is clearly the strongest back on the roster running through contact and has the best hands.
Lets keep in mind that if Royster showed better then Helu last year Royster would likely have made the roster while Helu would have went to the practice squad.
When it comes to vision and running style I think they complement each other.
Helu is more no nonsense to me, he makes his decision quickly and commits.
Royster is more patient a little more shifty and seems to look for the cutback.
