No gap between Deberg and Rainman as thread starter.

Davis is a nice 2nd RB but he hasn't shown the vision to be a starter imo. More touches could change things, but my current impression is he's not an NFL starting RB.

Not a fan, but could be worse at RB2

What are you talking about? Davis was a tenth of a second or two slower than Charles in the 40. That's it. That's not a change of speed back

I don't know if that is Knile Davis or not, just could be a reason.

Hopefully, it was a freak injury and nothing more.
Charles was hurt in the same game for about the 30th time counting his shoulder issues

JC has more wiggle in his pinkie toe than Knile does in his whole body.

But I like to see the confidence, and Knile brings his own dynamic to the fold... a 230 pound guy with his straight line speed and catch ability is the perfect backup for JC.

We have the best 1-2 backfield punch in the NFL, IMO.

I wonder what JC 's yards per carry were his first two years behind LJ ?

Charles is one of a kind, he can't be replaced.

Charles ran a 4.38 at the combine
Davis ran a 4.37 at the combine

Change of pace back

Regardless of speed, Knile Davis, with 25 lbs on Charles, should be a change of pace.

At 230 lbs, when there isn't a seam, he's a guy that should be punishing tacklers.

He isn't as quick, and he doesn't have the vision or burst that Charles has, so he needs to be using the physical tools he has that Charles doesn't.

In short yardage you take the first hole no matter what the play calls for

If he has improved his skills as a pass catcher this year he will be a great weapon....
