I'm not so sure I would want to be the next Willie Parker if I was this kid... I mean, who really wants to be an over-rated, under-sized member of a permanent RBBC system?
um, i'll take it if i'm gado-gado. willie's a fast, strong dude running behind a massive and quick offensive line, learning from two masters of the craft (duce and bettis) who are on their way out. future looks exceptionally bright for fwp. to say that about gado when his whole situation in green bay looks dismal, that's saying a lot. is he as quick and strong? if so, that is indeed saying a lot. jokes aside.
Jeez, we finally get our rb stable cleared of all those wierd names like ahman and najeh, and get someone with a real name like tony, and then we get samkon in here to ruin everything. He better be as good as they say...

He is just now emerging from obscurity and someone's throwing out references to a successful back on a GOOD team?
I would expect nothing out of this guy this year or even next year.
Well - thats kinda why its funny that they are comparing him to FWP. Many people think FWP is a 3 game fluke who doesnt have much of a real future at all. I mean, its not as if they are comparing Gado to a proven RB or anything.

There you are again naysaying Willie Parker again. Did he steal your girlfreind or something?
It's a little hard to keep ragging on him as he's hanging C- notes and busting 37-yard touchdown runs isn't it?
I would say Willie Parker is a proven NFL running back. He has what it takes. Will he be a hall-of-famer or a multi-year fantasy stud?? Well now those things are a little far-fetched at this point.

Are you the willie parker police? Everytime CBM mentions him you jump him. I agree with CBM that Parker is still unproven but proving himself every game.
Besides Cado is from Liberty, when is the last time you heard the words Liberty University and Football in the same sentence?

My reaction is a direct result of all the hype this unproven, undrafted, guy recieved after tearing up a couple terrible defenses early in the yr. Call me skeptical. And before you go on saying that undrafted RBs can do well in the NFL - my response is name more than 10 since the NFL incorporated the draft. The odds are simply stacked against him - its not like Im taking a position thats tough to defend.
