no kidding. best part was when that one guy was "i'm so sorry for bringing john brown into this convo bc now we're WAY off topic but blah blah blah john brown john brown toby gerhart john brown blah blah."Should we change the thread title to "Storm Johnson vs John Brown".
i know. Its like the perfect storm.Yeah I picked him up, will give him a couple of weeks to show something. But I wonder if there would be as much excitement over him if his name was Dave Johnson, rather than STORM.
Nope, Dave Johnson sounds like a white RB, and we all know how that goes...Yeah I picked him up, will give him a couple of weeks to show something. But I wonder if there would be as much excitement over him if his name was Dave Johnson, rather than STORM.
Just. Wow.Shutout said:Storm Johnson might be Frank Gore.
A Storm is brewing.
I would think you'd need to be pretty desperate. I'm certainly curious to see his role and how he does but no chance I start him unless I have no other option.Are people actually starting this guy?
yep starting him in both leagues out of sheer desperation. Id much rather start him than the Denver backfieldAre people actually starting this guy?
This is where I am at as well. Have both Hillman and CJ, but not sure which one of them is the better start, maybe neither it could be Thompson, who knows? Thinking of dropping one of them and riding the Storm out this weekend.yep starting him in both leagues out of sheer desperation.

The current regime drafted Storm Johnson in the sixth round, they also drafted Dennard Robinson in the fourth round and they signed Toby Gerhart in the earliest part of free agency to a decent contract.Stealthycat said:the best part of this is the coaching staff drafted Storm Johnson, the two RB's in front of him have sucked and Bortles knows him.
On a team where I drafted Peterson, Bernard, and Mathews as my top 3 rbs, yeah... I might. It's between him and Hyde, Taliaferro, and Donald Brown for my RB2. The prospect of Storm getting 10 - 15 touches might just be enough to make it worth it for me.Are people actually starting this guy?
Have him in right now over Hill.Are people actually starting this guy?
Toby Gerhart (foot) did not practice again on Friday.
The Florida Times Union confirmed Gerhart suffered a setback in Wednesday's practice after he sprained his foot last Sunday against the Steelers. He's missed practice each of the past two days and is looking like a game-time decision at best for Week 6. The AP's Mark Long quipped there may be a "Storm warning" coming to Nashville. He's alluding to rookie Storm Johnson, who would likely assume early-down duties for the Jaguars against the Titans should Gerhart sit out.
Well done.Wednesday: a storm was brewing
Thursday: the calm before the storm
Today: The Perfect Storm
Hopefully Monday its not: Quiet Storm
Thank you.
That's the beauty of a name like Storm. There is never a need for a nickname.Cannot believe it's made it through over 125 replies and, unless I just missed it, absolutely no one has suggested "The Weatherman" as his nickname.
Probably because "Storm" is much shorter.Cannot believe it's made it through over 125 replies and, unless I just missed it, absolutely no one has suggested "The Weatherman" as his nickname.
I may be in a ridiculous 20-team league I'm in. Picked him up during waivers this week.any one going to actually start him?
Yes, that's much more endearing and easy to use than his given name. And so much more fun, too. Thanks Boomer.Cannot believe it's made it through over 125 replies and, unless I just missed it, absolutely no one has suggested "The Weatherman" as his nickname.
I kinda have to at rb2LOCO said:any one going to actually start him?
probably not, but considering that my options at RB2 now are Hillman, McKinnon, Chris Johnson, and Hyde, there's a chance.LOCO said:any one going to actually start him?
how's jamaal charles on bye, bush hurt and bad, ball hurt and bad.... i might be rolling with hillman and storm this weekend.... these two probably still beat the 2013 week 1 production i got from Lamar Miller and David Wilson (1 point combined i believe)I would think you'd need to be pretty desperate. I'm certainly curious to see his role and how he does but no chance I start him unless I have no other option.Are people actually starting this guy?

A Storm is Brewing... Gerhart ruled out I could see Storm handling 15 carries 2-4 catches, goallineCatchy name. "Storm is brewing"
A lot of excitement for a committee back on the team everyone is scrambling to start their defenses against as their top waiver prize.
Well Have Reggie Bush for Rb2 and he is out so im desperate. Im starting Storm I think this is the week to play him he will break out then be huge waiver wire. Get him now if you are scared to start him this week at least guys.I would think you'd need to be pretty desperate. I'm certainly curious to see his role and how he does but no chance I start him unless I have no other option.Are people actually starting this guy?
Any input on this? The gambler says stick with the Storm but my head days grab T. Williams, (whom I was high on pre draft) for two guys I just picked up a few days ago.I was just offered Terrence Williams and Bobby Rainey for storm Johnson in Odell Beckham Junior (redraft)
I got admitted looks enticing to get Terrence Williams for since like two guys I literally just picked up a couple of days ago, however I am desperately hurting at running back.
Beckham is greater than or equal to Terrence Williams. Williams numbers are inflated by TD rate is not sustainable. No to trade IMO.I was just offered Terrence Williams and Bobby Rainey for storm Johnson in Odell Beckham Junior (redraft)
