Entertaining item about L.T.

[dvdbumpus]

I was bored and flipping through previous NFL draft stuff, and lo and behold, a draft profile in 2001 for good ol' LADAINIAN TOMLINSON. Now, This quote I found to be the best:

GAZING INTO THE CRYSTAL BALL... Once he adjusts to running from a pro-set instead of a veer offense, watch him grow into a very effective back. Definitely starting material, but he has enough to only garner All-Pro consideration eventually, but this is no franchise back (or anyone else) here, folks. His numbers are very impressive, but he's a product of the team's system. Too bad too many general managers are desperate for a running back, as he'll go higher than his stock dictates.

Yes, not a franchise back for the current holder of a ton of NFL rushing records, including the touchdown record, and is on pace to be the best NFL RB ever. LOL

Not a franchise bck? I guess that shows what the so-called draft experts know.
For the longest time I've thought that Barry Sanders was the greatest running back that I've ever seen in my lifetime, but L.T. is making me rethink that.
