Saquon Barkley is more Reggie Bush than Ezekiel Elliott

Leading up to this year’s NFL Draft, the top quarterbacks have been picked apart by scouts to the point where no one believes any of them is a sure thing. Penn State running back Saquon Barkley, however, has been the darling of the draft process and regularly referred to as the only ‘can’t miss’ skill position player at the top of the first round.

Colin pointed out that Barkley may not be the guaranteed home run people thinks and looks more like a situational home run hitter like Reggie Bush than a 30-carry a game NFL workhorse like Ezekiel Elliott.

 

Kyrie is wearing down without LeBron to lean on

Kyrie Irving left LeBron to be the man in Boston, but as the playoffs approach, he’s sidelined with a knee injury and has struggled recently when he has been on the floor.

Colin thinks understands Kyrie’s desire to be the focal point of the franchise, but as he fades down the stretch it’s clear that life is a lot harder without LeBron to lean on. Heavy is the head that wears the crown, unless you’re the King.
