Today's Penn State football news headlines feature more lofty praise for Saquon Barkley and an in-depth Sports Illustrated piece on the start of Joe Moorhead's electrifying offense.
NFL.com's Daniel Jeremiah assembled opinions from five NFL executives, who were tasked with comparing Barkley to former or current NFL running backs. One picked do-it-all David Johnson. Others picked current stars Ezekiel Elliott, Kareem Hunt and Joe Mixon and former Bengals and Patriots back Corey Dillon. In all five cases, executives suggested Barkley was better than the player in question, including Elliott, the reigning NFL rookie of the year.
