Frank Gore is 36-years old. He ran for 722 yards last year and averaged 4.6 yards per carry. During the draft cycle, when people talk about how important 40 times are for running backs, I can’t help but laugh. Top end speed doesn’t mean that you’re going to break a bunch of long runs, and Gore is living proof. Balance/vision>patience>speed.
Frank had a trait that all running backs need that’s so much more valuable than top speed. Balance. His balance is unreal. https://t.co/CFCVKtqbax

Gore is about to enter his 15th NFL season, which is unheard of for a running back.
