How is that a bust?
Because he had a fumble?

Because he is a 1st round draft pick and those picks are valuable. It's not his fault. Only an idiot would think a running back was 1st round material at this stage unless it was a rare situation. Maybe you see an A. Peterson. ETN s a bust as far as a draft pick at that stage. That guy is a 3rd rounder on a food day. He might have a viable NFL career...maybe. A first rounder for a RB now? No. It has to go go down as one of the dumber picks when you are trying to build a team.

Unless you think he’s one of the better RBs in the flass

And part of your strategy for “team building” is drafting a franchise QB and the RB he’s already got chemistry with to help with the NFL transition
Stinks ETN was out last year, but your being harshly over critical and very much “I’m so brilliant with the benefit of hindsight.”
Who should the Jags have taken to “build a team?”

No, a he is not a 2st round rb. You can get him in the 3rd round. Chemistry? What? An OL would have been way smarter.

have taken over ETN?
And I’m not saying your wrong, they likely could have waited a round to take him… but to argue that he’s a bust bc of where they drafted him is laughable.
And remember, ETN had been lined up in the backfield with TL for 3 years, ran routes and caught passes, stayed in for pass pro blocking.
There’s a mental piece to the position as well. Why do you think the Jags brought Tebow into training camp? He was never going to play.. it was to help TL mentally with Tebow and his Christian leadership and prior NFL experience
If you don’t think qb mental comfort matters, see Clemson football for the last 2 yrs
You’re take is a bust this time my friend

I think that at soley running back, I kinda agree but if they can get him to catch passes mores and on a lot of their screen plays, he is perfect. He's physical for his lighter size, and he is super fast.

But calling him a bust just isn’t right
The guy is averaging 5 yards a carry and just ran 100+ yards against a top quartile nfl team
And it’s not like they have some all star O-line

Why don’t you man up and compare him statistically to other running backs selected in the 1st round over the last few years and show us he is a bust?
Or you can just keep making an @$$ out of your self and telling everyone how little they know anything about sports and football….

Definition of "a bust"
Dec 18, 2022, 8:12 PM
[ in reply to Re: The dude is averaging 5 yards a carry in his first season ] |

.......quick Google search for "a bust" definition
.....a worthless thing.
"as a show it was a bust"
Even they could have got him in the third round, he is not "a bust", i.e. he is not a "worthless thing".

I guess you could argue he's a bust due to the devalued position he plays. Personally I wouldn't waste a pick on a RB before the late 4th round/early 5th and he'd have to be special, a HR threat like TE.
The RB position is devalued for a very good reason. Under the current rules and the 20 year evolution of the passing game, the analytics gurus have been able to determine that NO MATTER the production of RB-the position will not alter the overall record of Wins & Losses for the season. In other words: a 7th overall pick like former Panther gold brick CMC could have ran for 2,000 yds & 20 TDs in 2020 and their record MIGHT at best have been 6-10 rather than

The replay looks to me like the fumble was both etn and TL16's fault.... ETN is having a great game. I have a cousin who has to find fault with everyone too. I suppose it makes him feel better about himself!

ETN, while possibly being picked higher than he should have been, is hardly a bust. Busts don't perform, ETN is playing well. And he was a very low first rounder, not top 10

You can say he was picked too early, but to me the term "bust" is a player who doesn't work out for the team and not one who was picked earlier than necessary. To each their own, but I think it entirely too early to call him a bust.

Someone who feels the need to claim they know sports usually don't know too much. He's already at 800 yds rushing and 200 receiving in his first year playing. How is a RB on pace for 1500 total yards a bust?

ETN would have never made it to the 2nd round. Not sure what they had but a good QB and a good RB are great positions to get high draft picks if you currently do not have any.
May have been crazy for a few teams but I believe it was good for a bad Jacksonville team.
All teams make ups are different so a generalization of what you draft in what rounds makes little sense imo.

I see what you're saying in terms of selecting a RB in the first round but I'd hardly say the selection was a bust. Maybe not a wise choice for a franchise. I'm curious, do you think the Panthers selecting Christian McCaffrey in the first round was a "bust" move also?

Ate you serious?
Dec 18, 2022, 2:15 PM

The kid is 12th in the NFL in rushing. He was the #2 back to start the season, then split carries for a couple weeks and then was #1. He responded with several 100 yd+ games. He doesn't have a great run blocking line yet averages 5 yards a carry. He will notch a 1000 yd season.
All this coming back from a year off. If you want to see bust look at the kid Kansas City drafted on the word of Patrick Mahomes. Etienne hasn't scratched the surface of what he will be in the NFL. As a general rule WRs in the NFL have "the light comes on moment" in theory 3rd year RBs in the 2nd.
I seriously can't believe anyone would judge TE as a boom or bust 14 games into his career. That is a laughable.

Calling him a bust in his rookie season is silly. It is fair to question taking a RB in the 1st round as good teams don’t do that for a reason. Especially for a team with holes up and down the roster. Might have been smarter to trade the pick for a starter and a couple more mid round picks

Think about the backs the Jags have drafted, now realize that ETN1 is the 1st Jag's back to start his career with 3 straight 100 yard games. As far as fumbling that usually happens with rookiebacks which considering ETN missed all of last year he is. So yes definitely a good thing he is anonymous bc the word "ignorant" is tame for how dumb he really is.

You serious Clark? Injured in preseason last year and now he’s trying to come back from his injury and learn to play in NFL with this being his first year playing. And he looks pretty good. He also wasn’t drafted as a pure downhill running back. He was drafted as a pure playmaker. They planned to get him out in space with the pass and they’ve done. Good bit of that. Baring injury I think 2023 will be his breakout year.

Although, he profess to know ‘something’ about NFL football.
ETN rushed for over 100 yards.
Lawrence passed for over 300 yards, but oh yeah he had an INT and a fumble.
Jags beat a playoff team today.
Dude get the h—- out of here.

There d is playing better and offense is getting better.

It's rare to see NFL backs get 100 yds anymore.
ETN is playing his 1st season. He's doing very well.
Yours takes the lead for most ignorant post of the day.

Good grief, Mousy, your Debbie Downerisms are full bore ridiculous and not the least bit thought out, esp. re TE! You certainly know how to make yourself look arrogant, a know it all and devoid of the ability to evaluate Etienne's talent from your lower perch on Tnet.
Humility is NOT your strong suit!
Clean it up and try harder! Maybe people will stop skewering & kicking you around on Tnet!!
I hope you can shuck off your sadness and maybe have a Merry Christmas. It will help your recovery!

Something else to consider some franchises want to draft from proven winners. OSU, Alabama, Georgia and Clemson to name a few that have played the best of late. Some guys are not only good but they know what it takes on and off the field to succeed.

How did this post work out for you? Hmmm, 103 yards rushing helped "bust" the Cowboys.

Legit fool troll.
ETN in his first year had more yards and yards per attempt than 19 other starting running backs in the league. And doing it with a terrible line.
Ban yourself and do us all a favor

He will never be first round running back worthy. At the least he wont 1st round durable. He is a 3rd rounder at best.

OK, that’s your opinion. You’re certainly entitled to your opinion.
But to say he is a bust as of today, is a really weak opinion or a factually wrong statement. You choose.

Will be a 1000 yard rusher in his first season. In a year where he didn't become the lead back until week 8. Dude has been stellar. The only thing I see that he needs to work on in off-season is ball security and keeping his body healthy. Easily worthy of top round draft pick. Are looking for him to be Derrick Henry in year 1?

Bust is the wrong word for sure. He's playing within his capabilities and having a good year. RB's don't have long careers in general so yeah he's kind of a borderline first round pick. He really doesn't have the frame to take the punishment running between the tackles in the NFL. Their trying to mix it up with him and get him on the edge or into the passing game. Hope he dodges the injury bug and makes it to his pension year. I really enjoy watching ETN and the generational man help to turn it around in Duval.

ETN will make you look so foolish, they got rid of their othe RB because ETN is saving them money and he is very talented.
Minus his first ever injury, ETan has been amazing and he will continue to be a great weapon. This is his rookie season, he has been amazing considering he’s coming off an injury an it’s his rookie season.
He’s going to make you eat crow and look like you don’t have a clue as to 1st round talent in my opinion.
Let’s mark this post and revisit next season! Jk

Did the Jaguars reach a little? Yes. I think we were all surprised by that. Probably not in their best interest but with that said I was stoked for ETN! Couldn’t be happier for him. I’m glad he got paid and he is representing Clemson very well!

I can’t believe you are calling ETN a bust after he had another game rushing over 100 yards today. Not a bad day for a rookie who could use more blocking. ETN has over 800 yards rushing as a rookie. Former UGA RB Z. White has had 16 carries for 66 yards. He is not even on the first team.This is ETN’s true rookie year since he was out all of last season. He also has a chance to rush for a 1000 yards in his rookie season. I believe ETN has had at least 4 games with 100 plus rushing yards.He is also a talented receiver.
I believe ETN will prove he was a 1st round draft pick. With a little more time and experience, ETN will become a very valuable RB. The Jags were able to get 2 talented players Trevor Lawrence and T. ETN by drafting them in the 1st round.
TL and ETN are two of the most talented players to ever play in DV Clemson, SC. They also have been excellent ambassadors for Clemson University.
Anonymous, I have to strongly disagree with your opinion that ETN is a bust! How can you make observation about ETN stating he is a bust in his rookie season with more games to play.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Go Tigers! ???

I wouldn't have drafted ETN in the first round, but he's not a bust, the Jags need to pass to him more, only has 27 receptions (?) this season.

it's ever a good decision to draft a RB in the 1st round, and it's likely always a mistake to trade up for one. They get hurt too much, the peak of their careers are too short, and there are just so many examples of guys drafted in the late rounds or even undafted players performing just as well as early round RBs.

I could be way wrong. I was thining for a 1rst round RB. Nothing more. If I was wrong. Who cares? We have the softest fans. I love ETN. Some of the best running backs were free agents now a days and we're not even drafted. I was more knocking Urban Meyer, but we have some chicks in here that are overly sensitive. By the way, when he was drafted the pundits agreed with me. He is doing well, not 1st round well, but he just may get there. Either way, I phrased it wrong.
