Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
I just watched highlights of this kid on youtube. He reminds me of Ricky Ervins and Thomas Jones. He's going to be effective in our backfield.

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
Can't say I know all that much about him...but I'm not one to question any RB that Mike Shanahan selects

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
6th round pick and in our system, all RBs Shanahan pick seem to do well. So I like the pick & he'll be good in our rotation with Helu/?Hightower.
But (1) He's not a big guy (5'11" - 219 - BJacobs was 6'4" - 260), (2) He needs to work on his bench, (3) fumbling every 47 touches is a concern. But for a 6th round pick, he'll be fine for the timeshare of the RB by committee. |

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
This guy has earned the starting job. I love how he runs hard and with no wasted motion. He's a football player folks and come Sep 9th I want to see this guy wrecking havoc as our featured back.

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
Good timing on the Morris thread bump.
So far he looks like a grinder who just flat moves the chains. Knowing Mike likes a committee and RB I hope the other guys learn to fall forward like Morris.

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
If Royster, Helu are injured and Hightower is not 100%...its a no-brainer, Shanny needs to start Alf in New Orleans.

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
Royster will probably still start week 1, but I'm sure Morris will be in the mix all year long.

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
I picked Alfmo up as my last player in a fantasy draft. He looked like a beast against the Colts... but we're talking about the Colts. I think we looked as lost as they did our first 34 season. I hope he does well and wasn't just the benefactor of a confused D.

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
I drafted him with the last pick in both of my drafts as well. Everyone said "WHO?"
I just laughed and said, the starter, that's who.

Re: Alfred Morris pick 6.3
Grabbed him off waivers a couple weeks ago, and also just added Slaton. Don't think slaton will be starting anytime soon by any means, but he's certainly talented. I think starting Morris at RB against the saints would be a great move for the Redskins; he's looked far better than Royster this preseason. Sounds like Helu's a bit beat up still also (although he looked good against a terrible bucs backup defense)
