RB Theorem: Walking But Wounded

After casting aside some names that neither failed nor statistically stunned as rookies, I was left with these three mediocre myrtles. Their stories literally bleed with unfulfilled potential. Like the rookie stunner series, the players contained within were all first round draft choices. For more RB Theorem, click here. Jahvid Best -Best was one of

RB Theorem | Rookie Stunner Series: Doug Martin

In Chapter Two (Mythologies of this Size), I called Doug Martin an ”outlier to my wheelhouse size.” He literally checks all the boxes of what a successful NFL running back should be, according to size research.
