Now we see why we let Russell go. Frank is going streaking, through the quad and into the short yardage back duties. I like his mentality, seems like a Steelers player. Tomlin really likes these versatile players that can line up and play a few different positions. Hopefully this means we can let Carey Davis hit the road sooner rather than later.

One thing to keep in mind when watching the videos is the speed of the competition our guys are shown playing against...
That said...
I see why our RB coach said what he said about Summers

http://www.nfl.com/draft/2009/profiles/frank-summers?id=238445
...."The guys that I've talked to -- the other running back coaches -- have all said he might be one of the more difficult guys to tackle that they've seen on film this year," Steelers running backs coach Kirby Wilson told the Las Vegas Review-Journal following Summer's pro day in early March. "You don't see that (good receiving ability) of a big man much."...

Profile of Steelers' fifth round draft pick: Frank "The Tank" Summers
The 5-foot-9, 242-pound RB brings power to short-yardage and goal-line situations and the will to excel on special teams to mix
http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09119/966200-66.stm?cmpid=steelers.xml

At one point in his junior season at UNLV, Frank "The Tank" Summers suddenly saw himself as Frank the frog.

The Rebels had the ball near the opponent's goal line, the perfect spot to call on their 5-foot-9, 242-pound Tank. He took the ball, headed toward the end zone -- and leaped as high as he could. The defense stopped him in midflight before he could score.

"He tried to get too fancy," UNLV coach Mike Sanford said yesterday. "I told him he needs to know who he is and how he's built; he needs to run them over."

Summers heeded his coach's advice.

"He told me to use my speed and power, that there's no reason to be in the air when you can run over everybody," Summers said yesterday. "You always see it on TV -- the all-star running back doing it; you figure the end zone is just right there, if I can just jump over. In that case, it wasn't the best idea.

"I believe that's the last time I jumped."
