The guy was coming off a serious illness, it was rumored that his career might have been over, but it didn't end.

I know he hasn't, and I'll be the first to tell you that he's overrated.

Quite overrating him, he hasn't dominated this year. He's been decent. Our back-up ( name slips my mind ) did better while he was in there than what Bulaga has done.

Riley Reiff. He is going to be an absolute stud in the next couple years.

Yea, and the kids still a RS Freshman. At this point, he is still very raw but already looks further along than Bulaga was. He also looks like he is going to be a lot more well rounded, and is very athletic. I can't wait.

Reiff doesn't have nearly the frame Bulaga does, but is rangy, long, and quick.
HF, I'm not overrated Bulaga; he'll go top 15.

This may be baseless, but does Mark Ingram remind anyone else of Frank Gore? Similar builds with short height yet stocky and strong girth, and similar styles of play as both can use size to barrel through defenders while also using vision and quickness to gain yards. Is this accurate?

Greg Romeus reminds me a lot of Ray Edwards. Though Romeus is probably a little more athletic.

id agree, probably a better route runner, but less of a vertical threat.
Joe Haden-Nathan Vasher?

Gilyard = Steve Breaston, works as a slot WR but won't be limited to it

Does anybody see a little Chris Johnson in C.J. Spiller? Does anybody think he could be a similar type of runner in the NFL and have a lot of people asking themselves how they overlooked his apparent talent. There are definetly a lot of mixed reviews on Spiller.

Mardy Gilyard = Santonio Holmes
Similars size, both very shifty and dangerous in the open field and both run very precise, crisp routes getting in and out of their breaks quickly. Both have good hands and can make the great catch, but will occasionally look to run before the catch and drop an easy one.

No. Chris Johnson is a great running back. C.J. Spiller will never be a great running back. He'll be a great all-purpose player, but when it comes to running the ball, he'd be a 3rd round pick. Their speed is similar, but Spiller still really isn't a guy who can be an every-down back. Think a better Leon Washington, Reggie Bush type player.

That very well could be the case. But many said the same thing about Chris Johnson. I see a lot of similarities, Johnson is faster though.

I also like the DeSean Jackson comparison. I'm sort of between Jackson and Holmes for Gilyard. Gilyard is closer to Holmes' size and strength.
