Pick 44: RB Matt Forte

[Posey H8er]

BULL even Pax

Yeah major kudos to him. He was one of the few who truly supported this pick.

To bad he is rolling blading down clark as we speak.

It sounds like he IS Cedric Benson, but with a good work ethic.

The bottom line is that the best we can hope for with Forte is a solid, not spectacular, running back to compliment whoever will become our solid, not spectacular Quarterback.

Show yourself, blumeany....

Matters how good the OL is, but I see two of Peterson/Wolfe/FA getting significant carries besides Forte.

I'll say, 240 carries, 980 yards, 6 TDs

Make that 1100 yards and 8 TDs.

Forte was amazing, but I wont be making predictions on stats for at least another couple weeks. The Colts obviously didnt know what to expect and as the season goes on people will have game plans for him. He has tremendous talent and vision, I think at the very least he has the potential to be a 1,000 yd back, its on the OLine to get him some holes.

I like him in check down and screen situations, I could see him gaining around 200-300 yds there too.

Great debut though.

Is everyone comfortable?
