Shutout 2,013 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 3 hours ago, Pigskin Fanatic said: Gurley of 2016 or the potential of Gurley when he was drafted? Serious question, this could go either way... Meaning what each of their value will be a year from now. In general, I'm saying that foreman's value will rise and his hype will rise going into next season while Gurley's will continue to erode. After three years of "didn't live up to the great hype we expected" I think a lot of people will start to sour on Gurley by this time next year. This statement / prediction is really more about Gurley than Foreman. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
