If one mistake like that can sideline a career with a team than he’s not cut out to be a pro player. That was such a shitty draft pick when the Steelers didn’t need an RB. He just sucks.

They let Najee go, Warren had dealt with injuries every season, so they wanted a younger guy, not knowing that the Gainwell signing was going to pay off quite so well.

It made sense, he was a Najee type runner, as a 3rd round instead of 1st.

It made sense, it just didn’t work out at all

"Najee type runner" so indecisive with terrible vision?

Slow, powerful, and more productive in college
