For fans that love the NFL and NBA, it is that quiet part of the year where you don't have either sport running at all. So you are forced to come up with interesting headlines that you think will be bold predictions for the upcoming year.
I know this isn't very bold but the writing on the wall this year has all signs pointing at Saquan Barkley, aka Saquad, for rookie of the year. Who can blame them though?
Coming out of college his skills at Penn State translate to the perfect NFL back. He has instincts, speed, jump cuts, power, catching ability, and not to mention, he can also return the ball for you if you really need it. Saquad's talent is mind boggling and honestly would not surprise me if he is considered the best back in the league after the year is over.
When I look at Saquad's position, it reminds me of the same situation a few years ago when Ezekiel Elliott was coming out of Ohio State. Zeke was drafted onto a talented offense where Dez Bryant was in his prime which made defenses scheme for Dez and not for Zeke. For Saquad's situation, he has Odell Beckham. Odell is considered the best receiver and the defense has to scheme to stop Odell first before they scheme to stop Saquad.
The Giants should be a scary team this year. If teams in the NFC East are not careful, they could go from worst to first.
