No, it’s not just because he and I graduated from the same school, but I am a huge fan of running back Cam Akers and his selection to the LA Rams with the 52nd pick on Friday evening.
The newest member of the Rams is an advanced statistics nightmare for the rest of the NFL — and I don’t care who knows it.
You may hear about his athleticism; you may hear about his story to get to and while at FSU. But what you won’t readily hear about is the fact that this guy just simply got the job done, with perhaps the worst offensive line situation in front of him for the past three seasons.
