Nebraska used a FB in 2015. They were as close to nonexistent in the 2016 offense as could be.

I think Janovich's reputation might overshadow how little he was actually used in the 2015 offense as well. He had 42 total rushes and 2 catches. I can't imagine Miles getting much more attention than that. I agree, Miles is maybe the best FB in this class - but he's still a FB. That position is being all but phased out of modern day football. LONG GONE are the days of a FB being lined up in the backfield on every running down like they used to be. The FB spot is a specialized position now with particular packages involving them. They come in on short yardage and goal line situations for the most part. If Miles weren't such a versatile athlete capable of flexing out to H-back or even running the ball a bit ala Imani Cross/Janovich, I would be completely against him getting a scholarship at all.

His ceiling is about what Janovich brought to the table, which in hindsight might have been more on special teams. Miles might be different, but looking at history and how much an NFL talent like Janovich was used, Ben Miles won't be used very much to warrant a higher grade (IMPO).

OK N2FL it's been a day where is the ratings? Also can we throw the walkons int the final rankings. (Know they will all be towards the bottom just curious who you think might have a real shot)

1. DE Jordan Paup
2. DL Ben Lingenfelter
3. WR Kade Warner
4. OL Hunter Miller
5. OL Trent Hixson
6. QB Andrew Bunch
7. Ath Dylan Reynolds
8. WR Ethan Cox
9. LB Cody Liske

*K Cole Frahm. Like you probably know, I don't include kickers/punters/long snappers in my rankings. I look at them individually and Frahm seems like a very nice walk-on. Someone you can redshirt and develop and hopefully allows you to replace Drew Brown without using a scholarship to do it.

Not being a SA here but does it matter how much film he watches? This part is just for fun. It is safe to say that recruiting is a crap shoot and walkons are generally like betting 00 on the roulette wheel. Does not hit that often but when they do... :Banana::Corn2::Cheer2::Cheer2::Cheers:
