I think the breakaway speed notion is a little misleading. He broke off long TD's several times last season...is he Tyreek? Obviously not but when he gets going he can take it to the house imo.

Trung Canidate was WAY better than Holmes in that game. I think it was the 2003 edition that grudgingly gave Holmes a solid overall rating but still made him damn near unplayable by just goosing his awareness level.

Damien Williams is NFL fast. CEH is faster than anyone you know, but he has average speed for an NFL runningback. Everything is relative and no, CEH is not a 'fast' runningback. He's a fast human being, but at this level, he's not someone who lists speed as either a strong asset or a serious liability. It plays. It's fine. He's a fine broken-field runner who can probably house a play where he's in the middle and can make a single guy miss at the second level. But he's not spread the edge and start outrunning angles down the sideline like JC or even Williams could do. His speed is adequate and that's fine when combined with his other strengths. But in Madden that don't get you much.

Let me divulge. I think the true speed guys tend to overly rely on it and try to over use it. They become "big play searchers" that are all about that aspect, they don't want to bang out those 7 yard gainers or the vision to the hole gains where you make a guy miss in the hole and gain 13 yards. Now, if you have a guy that can do that AND has speed (think Charles in his prime) well yeah, thats ideal. Or AP when he was in Minnesota early. But for a RB these days and especially in this offense, give me wiggle and vision. Thats what made Hunt so perfect for it. He could rip off a big run here or there and get the offense going. I'm hopeful CEH is that. |

Now it'd be better if you were faster, but if you have enough other tools, you can make 4.6 work just fine.

CEH is probably going to have a speed rating somewhere between 86-89 depending upon how nice they are that day.
In the newer maddens speed isn't as important because the speed boost is actually detrimental to use constantly. |

When you combine fit, situation, and position (RB is easily the easiest position to evaluate and transition), CEH might be the safest bet in the entire ****ing class.

Speed is king in Madden. Unfortunately he's not going to be that good, unless they REALLY fix the blocking. Can't spam stretch plays with speed that low.

Side note regarding the 'big play searchers' - I think CEH may need to overcome that a little bit. He didn't try to use speed to hunt edges but there were times he'd try to use his feet a bit and dance behind the line instead of take 3-4 yards that were readily available.
Seems a smart kid and in time he'll learn when there's more yardage there and when there just isn't. But early on I think we'll see some frustrating runs where he's just a little slow to give up on a play and try to salvage it. He'll make some 3 yard runs into 8 yard runs in the process, but he'll turn some 3 yard runs into -1 as well. But I think he'll be an awfully good player. Someone asked, maybe in this thread, how a RB can make you more capable of dealing with a cover 3 and if you want the answer to that, watch the Rams game again. As you watch that game more and more you see just how hard the Rams were working to try to close up the middle and they just couldn't. Andy knew just how to use the threat of Hunt out of the backfield to create space underneath for Kelce and Watkins. And then as they would sell out to address that, he'd dial up something to attack the deep seam or corner. He's gonna be an issue on his own but his impact on the offense overall will be a real bitch to handle.

Just like WR's get schemed up in this offense, backs do so much as well. Andy is just really talented as a play caller/schemer. He'll get guys into space. CEH will be successful just based on that, but then you add in his abilities and it should be a great fit. |

If you are boosting the second you take the handoff, it's why you are sucking at running...the only plays that works on is like toss pitches.
