I already forgot about Kelvin Taylor, and people loved him here lol

So happy we signed Harris. He's a good fit in this system.

Keep in mind all O players in most of the last 16 yrs have played in a flawed O system. Never during that time did we have a great OC nor a greart HC or HC/OC who had a mindset made for NFL playcalling. Now we suddenly have a guy who can not only call great plays, great games, but calls some plays precisely so they set up another. No other HC here has done that since Coach Walsh. ...and now Kyle. Kyle is a lot like his dad when he was younger. Same kind of O mind.

Point is, not one of our players except for the few signed that had played for ATL under Kyle, have ever had that gifted a playcaller before, and all that goes along with it...great OL, great playcalling, and great game plannning. IF you like O football, you will love this yr and will be surprised at what kyle gets out of those lucky guys who make the O on this team....a lot more than you have seen from them before.

This is true but what Mike McCarthy, Norv Turner, Mike Martz, Jim Harbaugh, and Chip Kelly have taught us is that it is difficult to have an explosive offense if the talent is lacking. I know Harbaugh isn't seen as a great offensive guy but there are some respected names on that list.

Glad he's back.

Agreed. Dude is a stud. Gives us a good change of pace/receiver out of the backfield.

Yeah and nobody still has answered my question as far as his fumbling % on receiving the ball compared to taking a handoff.

I just looked up his fumbles.. since coming in the league in 2011, he's only fumbled 3x?

"STRENGTHS Plays the game with advanced understanding of an NFL player's son. Able to find additional yardage on his own with vision and outstanding lateral agility. Sweeping jump ­cut eludes sudden road­blocks. Can squeeze through a narrow patch when needed. Stacks cuts on cuts onto the second level. Has quickness to gain the corner. Never fumbled during time at Florida spanning 486 carries and 510 touches. Understands job requirements as pass blocker and executes to best of his ability. "

He's the kind of back that could find some success in Kyle's system.

Happy for Dujuan and good for the team. Had me scratching my head all damn season how Dujuan kept getting cut, he was the unofficial 54th man on our roster. Yet mike Davis stayed on the roster the entire damn time. Baalke didn't want to be proven wrong so bad at times that he let it hurt the team.

He's an ideal fit for those stretch runs/ outside zone that we will be seeing plenty off. Now hopefully Bobby Turner can fix his damn fumbling problem.

Once Kyle (if) fixes his fumbling issues, he should be legit... kid got moves.

Not comparing, but didn't Gore have some issues at one point with fumbling, then got it fixed one offseason

Yeah, I found only 4 fumbles in 5 years...I'm assuming those are fumbles lost. That said, he does have a propensity to fumble at the worst times. Maybe he fumbles much more but is lucky and they aren't lost fumbles?

I think he had a couple fumbles in preseason too but only lost one of them (to broncos). That's one of the reasons he didn't win a roster spot.

I think I remember that as well...maybe we've overblown that label a bit. But we'll see.

One thing for sure, Harris will give everything he has on each play.

I only see 3 according to NFL/ESPN. Not counting pre season,
