The most impressive part of Walton's running is he doesn't even look like he's moving that fast. J Love looks like he's flying, Walton looks like he's just cruising.

Yep, very different gaits

I was going to go with a smaller, slower Bo Jackson. Yes, slower for the guys here to young to have seen Bo in his prime. For these that don't know Bo Jackson is the only person that Deion Sanders admits is faster than him with 4.13 forty time. BTW he was 6'1 230.

Deion Sanders got smoked by several NFL players and "Flipper" Anderson made light work of him in several games and embarrassed him in a race at the Superstars Competition in 1990.

I feel like he is literally a direct comp to Chubb:

Similar size / speed profile, both put up huge numbers in the weight room. He's obviously not as good as Chubb yet, but I think he could get there.

Crazy we get 2 more years of this guy.

He's Emmitt Smith and Maurice Jones Drew making a baby while JK Dobbins is filming it.

That's the first thing I noticed... Very interesting phenomenon.

This is a really good comp. It's actually hard to unsee.

Fun Facts:

Both from Georgia

Nick Chubb - 10.69 - 100M, Shot put - 55' 8", High Jump - 5'6"
Ht. 5'10, 225-228lbs in College

Jonaz Walton - 10.66 (adjusted 100M), Shot put - 47' 9.5", High Jump - 5'10"
Ht. 5'9, 214lbs as a freshman

I was more less having a little fun with the Bo comparison but the Chubb comp is quite good.

Gotta love football. When I watch Walton, I see a lot more Sony Michel - Chubb's backfield running mate 😂

That's comparisons for ya.

I'm just imagining Chubb throwing that shot as an afterthought like a baseball. That is a bonkers combination of track stats.

Did any of those guys ever break one for over 90? They would get chased down.

NDFAN2008 · Wednesday at 2:22 PM

Anyone thinks he passes the total Estime had in 2023? 1341.

Would love for this weekend to be the game that Jonez breaks out on the national scene.

One of them has more rushing yards than, like, everyone. Ever.

But I get it. Track meets are fun

He'll need to average 150+ a game moving forward for that to happen. Despite all his success, there is a likely a game or two where he's not going to completely dominate as he has vs UNC & Stanford. So, I doubt it.

In the regular season, I'll bet no.

Estime did that in 12 games. For Walton to hit that number in 12 games he's going to need to average 155 per game and possibly still seeing the other two dudes getting carries.

Sorry should have said if we make a playoff run so play at least 3 games?

Ran behind the best line possibly ever in the NFL l with great QB and cocky WR. He was durable as hell but doubt he’s in anyone’s top 5.

It's a bit. When the comps start in a given thread, I post something about two players making a baby while another player films it.

Derrick Lassic would never be part of the bit.

I was the best RB...then I started selling fraudulent medical devices

All of it vs BYU. Put it on the board. Championship.

Mine takes a little longer to get there these days, but once he's up, he's up.

I'm all natural too. No PEDs here boy!

I never said anything about speed. Speed is for the young folk.

He's like a pot luck of Clinton Portis, Ahman Green, Ladanian Tomlinson, Emmitt Smith, Marshall Faulk, Fred Taylor, Jamal Lewis, Priest Holmes, and Shaun Alexander combined. May have left somebody out but you all get the gist.

Or he's just Jonaz MF Walton, fellas. Goodness.
