If that's all a fast RB needed, then so many of them wouldn't fail. There are a lot of fast RB's that don't make it. Awareness, blitz pickups, learning the playbook, balance, power, all of that is needed with that speed. The young RB's on this team may have what it takes, but we don't know that yet, so we can't assume it until they perform on game day.
