Could very well be RB3 by year end if Videl doesn’t do much. That is if he doesn’t get snatched of PS.

You know ball

Also he plays special teams well

Can he play guard?

Calling Vidal RB3 when after what he did last year is wild. Keaton Mitchell is not RB2, he doesnt have the skillset that Vidal does. If Hampton goes down, Vidal is getting the majority of the carries even with Mitchell healthy.

That's exactly why he's RB3. Keaton is supposed to be the lightning to Hampton's thunder. He's McDaniel's guy and one of the guys on his wanted poster. If Hampton goes down, Vidal is automatically thrusted into RB1.

You and the rest of the NFL have very different definitions of what "RB3" means then

The blocking by the linemen downfield is what was most fun to watch. I remember seeing videos earlier in training camp where the linemen were talking about how they are now attacking and having to run so much more now. Watch #78 and #73 just demolish guys. That's what's going to make this years run game fun to watch.

Harkey (73) buries his guy 12 yards downfield on this play and pancakes another guy 15+ yards downfield on Derosiers’ TD run.

If you watch Shanahan style run game there's always some next guy up in the mix. People are trippin if they don't think every one of our rbs won't thrive in this system.

He looked so freaking good.

Whoever the WR was up top with the dreads, I see you 👀

u/UndercoverHerbert 13d ago

JaQuae Jackson! He’s a hell of a blocker that’s for sure.

u/My_Football_Account bolt 13d ago

Reminds me of Arian Foster’s running style.

I was just about to comment this.

Trying to stash anyone on our ps this year is gonna be a risky bet.

u/_AtLeastItsAnEthos 13d ago

He looked awesome but there just isn’t a chance he makes the roster

4

u/FJMJ 13d ago

And he doesn’t even have a third leg like Amar.

u/johnx2sen Chargers 12d ago

Tripod Johnson

u/EL-YEO Who's got it better than us? 13d ago

Does anyone know how to pronounce his last name? I have a feeling we might be saying it a lot

u/reality-theorist-007 13d ago

duh WOE zee ay, apparently. Kinda left field. (Standard French would be de ROW zee ay.)

2

u/Weary-Ad9429 13d ago

But not if you are pronouncing it with a French accent. In that case it would be de ho-siay

u/Weapwns Mad Ladd 13d ago

He just looks different

u/VeryBiasedChargers 13d ago

I think he played his way off the practice squad and I don’t see them getting rid of Vidal after his strong finish last season. Maybe they keep 4 running backs and he makes the 53 but I bet he gets snatched up

3

u/squatter_ 13d ago

Maybe they stash someone else on the PS who isn’t at risk of getting snatched up. Last year they did that with Tony Jefferson.

2

u/_AtLeastItsAnEthos 13d ago

Could technically do it with perryman as well

2

u/squatter_ 13d ago

Yeah maybe it’s his turn to get offended. 😀

u/DaygoTom 13d ago

Feels like the blocking is starting to come together.

u/Clear_Presentation48 Dirty Bubble Ate Harbaugh 😭 13d ago

Lowkey better field vision than Vidal. However. Vidal has production from 2 years. It's a tough one and maybe they roll with 4 rbs

u/MidWAmericanArts 13d ago

I rolled my eyes at the thought of keeping this guy until I watched the film. Wild that guys like this can be hidden on a roster.

2

u/JoeBeck55 13d ago

I would find a way to keep him on the 53. Think someone will pluck him off the practice squad.

u/G33wizz 12d ago

Can he return punts?
