maybe I'm the only one concerned about the RB position in 2017 .

Derrius Guice will be preseason All-American most probably .

A long season can be tough on a Rugged RB like Guice who refuses to go down fighting for every yard. . To expect Darrius to go an entire season injury free isn't realistic .

After him the backups are a very mediocre group .

Darrell Williams will be a senior and is a tough between the tackles RB , but he's not explosive
to break big plays . . If called upon to start and carry the load it may not workout too well

Brossette logged a few carries but that ACL surgery may still be hampering him . He's in the same
mold as Williams

Helaire will be a true Freshman . Will he be SEC ready to start and standout if needed ?

After that there's no one else . Etiene is not a Tiger yet .

This dilemma is the result of not recruiting enough top shelf RBs in the past couple of years .
