Baker= Ringer type back with better speed, but he's a lil guy
Caper= JC/ pj hill type back (big bruiser type) but with some nice speed. I loved jehuu as the kid played with great heart and a lot of his yards were imo just that, jehuu refusing to be denied. But I've often thought if we could get a muscle back like him that had some speed for when he did break through that would be a great weapon.

Film shows Baker with explosive speed and elusiveness. Caper is fast but seems to bust through tackles more than avoid but has a 6th gear once free to take off past the DBs.
I want both!  |
Both will be great running backs in college. The Caper comparison to PJ hill and Jehuu is a really big stretch. PJ Hill is around 230 pounds, and Jehuu is 250+. Caper is a complete back.
Baker is very similar to Jimmerson (and therefore pretty close to Ringer as well). Caper doesn't have any good comparisons. He has more meat than a smaller running back, but he is just as fast.
Either way, i'm excited for both.
