What is your grade for the RB room. Here are the players returning (again, I did not add everyone, just those expected to receive the majority of playing time)
Jay'Veon Sunday- Jr Rovaughn Banks- Jr Jordon Vaughn- Jr Isaiah Johnson- Sr
In my opinion, this might be the best, deepest position on the team. 3 big backs in Sunday, Vaughn and Johnson. Banks is more of the shifty back that can take it to the house from anywhere. The question is can/will he be able to stay on the field. I do wish we had 1 more scat back that can run, but also be a threat out of the backfield catching the ball. Overall, I give this position group an A.

Sunday had some real break out games last year. I was impressed with him. Like you, I wish we had one more really speedy back. We'll see if Banks ends up being that person although Sunday seemed shiftier to me last year. I gave a B.

We said we were deep last year though too…I understand this day and age you need to have a stable of backs, but we haven’t had a bell cow in years. Tracy James was maybe the last I recall being available week in and week out.

I thought we were deep at RB last year. With Dobbins injured and Banks suspended we still had Sunday, Vaughn, and Wisherd. I expected more from the run game but with the absence of a consistent passing game, teams could focus on the run. Still Sunday and Vaughn performed well. A lot depends this year on our OL. If that unit can be good then we have the backs to dominate. Johnson adds tough running, Vaughn is big and a really good target, Sunday is just a solid all around back.

I think this is our strongest position on the field. I think they will need to carry the offense this year, at least at the beginning of the season.
