i want football players, not track stars
Reminds me of the Jarron Gilbert pool jumping effort. Hopefully Cohen has a better career than he did. I just watched this kid's highlight reel. Reminds me of Darren Sproles. If he's anything similar to Sproles, I'm a happy fan.
Not sure which planet, but I bet Rask has visited it.On what planet is catching two footballs while doing a backflip a track and field event?

Garrett Wolfe 2.0??
Clearly we like hearing Darren Sprolles 2.0 more.
Total shift of pace & style from Howard, so could carve out a role.
Call me crazy, but I always thought Garrett Wolfe should've had a much better career but was stuck on shitty Bears teams that couldn't block with Legos. Shame of freak speed and talent. Both coming out of mid-level schools with huge numbers behind them. Dominating lower level doesn't always translate though. In 4th & beyond, you take shots. TBD.

With all the needs we have why pick another running back??
I agree. I don't think Wolfe got much of a chance and when he did get snaps he seemed to at least be alright. I didn't see any reason for people to say he was terrible. He had good speed but not elite speed for a smaller running back.
I hope it's different with Cohen. As good as Howard was last year, it's good to give the starter a break. Give the 2nd string guy two series and the 3rd string guy can get a few plays, too.
Was Cohen a returner in college? I remember the Bears trying Wolfe out as a kick returner during the preseason.
It's obvious Pace views a Sproles role for this kid. He had a visit to Halas Hall. I figured we'd probably try to grab him in the 5th. Can you imagine trying to tackle this kid after Howard has been pounding you the better part of 4 quarters? I think Carey is done.
