As a native Oregonian who have seen many Ducks games through the years, I for once, am excited to see what LMJ can bring to the table now that Hunter is on IR. Yes, i know that he hasn't been playing all year but that was because we are so loaded at RBs that he couldn't get on the field. This is a blessing in disguise similiar to the AS and CK7 situation. Now we have speed all over the field. Imagine the LBs have to cover for both LMJ and Kap at the same time. Pick your poison.This team is gonna be about SPEED, LOTS AND LOTS OF IT!!! COuld u imagine the Triple Option or Wildcat being ran w/ those two, and all the WRs and TEs that the opposition have to cover. I've just jizzed my pants thinking abt it

I am excited for his potential but would be a tad nervous if he was thrown into Kendall Hunter's role right off the bat. If they do use him hopefully they ease him into it.

Anybody else find it ironic that we drafted LaMicheal James and AJ Jenkins two guys similar in size and skills to Kendall Hunter and Kyle Williams and both of those guys go down on the same play? Possibly thrusting our two similar rookies into the spotlight in a flash of a second?

I'm not excited at all based on what I saw in the preseason. Him handling the ball makes me cringe.

I'm excited about him. I still don't know if he actually gets any playing time.

BTW, it's LaMichael. You're a Ducks fan, you should know!!

He was awful on returns, but did a decent job running the ball on offense. Maybe the coaching staff can draw up some nice option-read plays between him and Kaep.
