Eric Dickerson is the only RB in NFL history to start their first 4 seasons with 1000+ rushing yards, so if Naj can do it i say hed almost HAVE to get paid
All these so called fans been bashing Najee don’t know nothing, I’ve always rode with Najee, he runs hard, don’t fumble, and takes a lot of crap. Still my number 1 back
Spending a 1st rd pick on a RB, we expected more. Not fumbling and running hard is his job. How about avg 4.5 to 5 yards per carry or something. How about avg over 100 yards per game or something. Hell make the pro bowl. How about get over 10 tds in 17 game season.
@brandonabner9221 nobody on the big Green earth could do what you just described... idc if we paid them a billion to do so... your expectations are trash and that's why you want him gone. Be realistic for once
People who complain about 3.9 ypc are stat sheet watchers. He doesn’t have the big runs to boost it the way other running backs do but you could see it wearing out the chargers
What? That' sound dumb. 3.9 is nothing. The best RB get over 4.5. How about get more tha 10 tds in 17 game season. Najee is mid especially for a 1st rd pick
Last week wasn’t Najee’s best game, but it perfectly showed his importance. The first half he kept grinding out 3-4 yard runs and delivering hits to defenders. By the fourth quarter that defense was worn down and they were able to hit bigger runs to put the game away. Stats won’t show that but it wins games.
Najee has always been good even when he was getting hit behind the line of scrimmage every play (remember what conner looked like behind that line his last year in Pittsburgh). He never causes issues in the locker room and sure hes not a speed demon that breaks off 80 yard runs, but rather he can get yards even when he isn't supposed to. He finishes every run punishing a defender and that wears on a defense by the 4th quarter and end of the year. He can catch, block, stiff arm and hurdle. The most impressive thing though? He hasn't missed a single NFL game. Thats unbelievable. I want him to be a life long steeler.
PFF's grading system (who should have way more disclaimers saying this) seems to value meeting their vision of what an optimal play by ___ position & is completely unable to account for eccentricities in certain playbook, styles, &/or context of the game. Like TJ abandons his rush if he reads pure 3 step and inserts himself into a passing lane. Technically he didn't win his pass rush rep, but is a smarter play than just trying to clear an OL in 2 seconds without affecting the throw. PFF grades beating the OL higher, all of it is way too subjective for a number grade.
Too early to tell, he hasnt broke the century mark this year. Nobody wears a defense down like Najee. That holds a lot of value. I would say the efficiency of his production, I'm not a fan of. ..... His visions leaves something to be desired.....but I am a fan of the effectiveness of his production. Just need him to be a steady force early as well as late because if not for the 4th quarters.....Najee would have some bad games.
This whole thing feels confrontational as fuck. And incredibly stand off ish. Figure it out guys. You are worth more money together than you are separately. So figure it it out.
He's terrible. Cordarrelle Patterson is your best back AND best receiver because Pickens is a #2 and doesn't get open very often - mostly just a deep threat.

@@brandonabner9221I don’t know if any back could do that with the offensive lines he has had.
FACTS BRO NAJEE IS PITTSBURGH STEELERS FOOTBALL 💛🖤❤️

Perfect point
Naww fr n he’s a big back who really wanna tackle him in the cold😭🤦🏽♂️

Facts!! The amazing thing with Najee is when it SHOULD be a tackle for loss or 1 he still seems to get 3+ yards.

I believe it will be , and I guess I got to wait till the off-season to buy a Najee shirt , cuz I ain't buying it until they sign him ..
We have to sign Najee please ASAP
The Bus has a career average of something like 3.4 yards a carry.
I really do hope we resign him man i don't think our run game will be the same without him in Warren's hands alone
Its funny that PFF has him as having his worst season with a grade in the 50s smh

*PFF is a joke. Let's be honest. They don't know the assignments of all the said players and their grading system is hush hush. Bias BS is what it is*
PFF wants to see Najee in Cinci .. Screw PFF
PFF also had Myles Garrett as defensive player of the week recording 1 tackle.
Najee getting that mike evans disrespect
🤔
Yes
Indeed
Pay Najee
Tbh Najee would have more if they stop tryna toss it to him
Man najee that boy 😊
Define "Hot"
I think Najee’s legs might be screwed on backwards

FIELDS has better run stats.He should wear number zero to reflect his stats. Najee if Jerome is the bus, u are the BUST

YDKB
Hahahaha he is definitely not terrible
Troll
What a casual take
Still under 4 yds a carry as is his career. Not that great. Sorry
