Dylan Sampson pushing for RB1 job in Cleveland

[EastTNVol95]

No surprise to us Vol fans. Hate he went to such a poverty franchise but at least running backs have had success there recently (Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, etc.)

Great place to build a resume.

Man, I hope he does great and gets that $$$$ while he can because he won’t last long there.

 

[Nash Buckingham]

Love to had him back. I knew he was special

Cleveland is possibly the worst team in the NFL right now, but as a RB, Sampson is in a great spot. The Browns have been a run-first team for as long as I can remember. If Sampson were to also earn the starter as their 3rd down back, he could have a 1,000 yard season, despite the fact that Cleveland will be mostly throwing the ball in the 2nd half.

My thoughts exactly…hope he stays healthy long enough to get at least a few years into that second contract…I have no doubt he’s going to perform well enough to get a lucrative deal…just hoping he can hold up long enough to bank as much of it as possible

Not surprised at all. Any other year, he would have won the Doak.

 

[fossilfiction]

He was really good. He won at least a couple of games for us off the top of my head.

The Titans are the worst team, again, in the NFL.

If he played for anyone other than UT, he'd have won the Doak

The fact he got snubbed is a joke.

Titans say hi

Sampson was fantastic last year, but you’re wearing the orange glasses if you think he deserved the Doak over Jeanty.

And your brainwashed hiding behind "objective" if you think this.

Janky will be a career backup

Even if he is a career backup - which is a burning hot take after a handful of preseason carries - what would that have to do with his 2024 collegiate season?

2600 rushing yards and 29 TDs. If there was a snub to discuss it’s how they awarded Travis Hunter & the Colorado hype-train the Heisman over him

Jeanty has looked great today for the Raiders vs 49ers.

 

[Swiftybaby]

Had a fantasy draft last night and took him by mistake. Blessing in disguise. Gonna win me the title glory and money

I don’t think it was that. Ashton Jeanty ran for over 2400 yards I believe. Played some decent teams too.

Not SEC schedule.

Absolutely false. Jeanty was the no doubt winner. Sampson had a great year but it would have been a travesty if anyone other than Jeanty got it. Skattebo probably deserved it more than Sampson too.

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

Not SEC schedule.

Our schedule was about as easy as a SEC schedule could ever be, and an easy schedule doesn’t account for a 1200 yard gap. The difference between Sampson’s and Jeanty’s stats alone would be a great year.

He’s going to start Day 1 in the NFL.
