Skattebo has more carries than Martin and Ropati combined. It's interesting to hear people talk about how dangerous he is, but we don't hear the similar talk about Martin or Ropati.

I would trade every RB we have for Sakattebo... he reminds me a lot of Tyler Allgeier. Solid RB, punishing runner

Our defenders will need to be very physical to keep from getting tossed around

Skattebo is a Swedish surname. I thought we had cornered the market on
