Does Phil Mafah give King Henry vibes?

Which means while the Ravens had to commit up to 10 million a year for Henry, we just used a 7th round pick on the same player because our front office is just that good.

same player? how is he the same player? because they weigh similarly!?

its not even close. he was 40+ ranked RB this year for a reason..but yeah, you expect him to drink that special koolaid they hand him after he signs the contract and he just turns into super-duper RB.
 
I don't see a comparison, but a lot of people are writing him off and assuming Blue will ascend. I'm interested to see him in camp vs other runners and would love if it was Blue and Mafah that took the RB jobs.

I'm sure Sanders and Williams will get the first crack though so someone like Mafah may not get the opportunities to showcase what he can bring. It'll be a great rb camp battle though and probably the most intriguing battle on the team.

Not a good tape for him. He doesn’t lower his shoulder and plays really high. Looks slow at the college level and I doubt he adjusts well to nfl speed.

They say you can't teach speed. ..... They lied. Phil Mafah is about to learn it and become a beast. A STEAL in the 7th Round. Brady and Purdy have nothing on our pick.

Can you at least see that Jaydon Blue is like a more advanced version of Tony Dorsett?

advanced? how? Dorsett is a Heisman trophy winning RB who is also in HOF . Blue hasn't even played a single down of football. he was a 5th round pick.

geez dude. where are you coming up with all this stuff. an advanced version of Dorsett!!! WOW. just WOW.
p.s.
are you nipping at the bottle a little early tonight? just wondering where you are comin gup with this crazy stuff
 
He reminds me a little bit of Rodney Hampton - with that straight kick out straight up stance running.

10+ yards down field, once he got a head of steam going. too slow off the blocks and getting to the line, where most of the business happens in NFL. he is nto going to see the same type of running lanes as he did in college. I think he is a PS type of player this year.

Just never know. I don’t expect anything and all those plays were not 10 yards down field lol.

Sorry. Mafah does not have Derrick Henry’s speed. He’s a big guy who will be fun to watch in TC and PS games. But expecting him to be the next Derrick Henry is a huge stretch.

The thing you have to be careful with about college film highlights is there are often plays shown against guys who would never be close to NFL caliber players. Not knocking Mafah, but he was a 7th round pick for several reasons.

Aww cmon Bob - tell me you cant wait for him to break a long run, so you can yell “Look at that Mafahka go”

...I didnt realize how big he is, until seeing some college clips. Reminds me of King Henry in younger suit.

Did you just compare a college scrub to a Heisman winning RB?
