Who does Hunter remind you of?

Most similar to Darren Sproles, down to the size. Short, but insanely strong. Doesn't have MJD's big thighs.

Why stop there? How about a little Jim Brown, and a touch of Joe Montana. I know what you mean, but the guy has only touched the ball a handful of times and you're mentioning all time greats.

He actually reminds me of gore a lot. Both quick but not breakaway speed. Both good after first contact both good catching and both elusive and have a good burst. To me they are almost exactly the same and when gore is done we will have little to no dropoff. Great pickup

If MJD and Sproles had a kid it would be hunter.

I wouldn't call Westbrook an all time great, but I'm just comparing body type and style of running.

I'm as excited about Hunter as the next guy, but I don't think he has proven anything yet.
Hopefully that changes tomorrow.
let's not get carried away with somebody who has a sub 3.0 YPC

I'm sure there are a few, but I can't think of a better WCO running back than Westbrook.
Hunter looks good, but I haven't seen anything that made me think Barry Sanders. Who did he make miss behind the line? If anything, Hunter has had some good power runs. He and Dixon should switch brains.

He also reminds me of Ty Cobb. And Wayne Gretzky.

Comparing height and weight he physically shares little resemblance to Brian Westbrook... He most closely resembles MJD. Playing style seems similar to Gore

I have to disagree, CJ2k is a track player/wr playing RB.. Hunter actually keeps his legs churning, and runs through some people.
Are you really going to knock a guy that had a 2000 yard season?
