Green was blazing fast in an option offense and was criticized for not being able to run between the tackles in college.
Five years into his pro career, he's one of the 10 most disgusting in between the tackle runners ever (that one 1800 yard season was one of the best ever. he was destroying people)
My point: Fast, athletic running backs? Give em too me. We can usually teach nastiness and intangibles.
Other rexamples Chris Johnson and Ahmad Bradshaw too
This strategy misfires at times (Reggie Bush), but Im just a bit more careful when it comes to running backs
