Which current 'big back' does Shelton most resemble?

[hasbeen99]

I've heard him compared to several big backs, but which one do you think he resembles most, and why?

He looks like Smith

..... no, not Emmitt, Dummy, that big sucker who always kicks the Panthers' ass! Antwoine, I believe it is.

You must referring to Antowain however I hardly think he "always kicks the Panthers' ass". In 3 games including the SB he's had 208 yards on 58 carries and scored 2 TDs. That's only 3.6 ypc. The teams that he was on may have come out on top on the scoreboard but he didn't kick our ass singlehandedly.

no idea. i'd like to see him in some exhibition games, at least. get back to me in week 8.

His game is very similar to Davis'. Good vision, hits the LOS quickly and adjust to pursuit, will run around but more likley over you, probably isn't going to have lots of huge runs but will get consistent positive yardage.

I threw in Eddie George. He's not of that level, but he's a big, athletic back who's height and weight are both well above average but not at the cost of being a flabbard. Same with George.
