Agreed. I loved Woodhead and never liked that we kept Vereen over him. But boy o boy, Lewis is like a Woodhead 2.0. Both have that ability to just find space that you don't think is there, both in the run game and in the pass game. But Lewis takes that to another level. Compared to Vereen, Lewis has probably created more yards on his own by making guys miss than Vereen did during his whole time here.
I think we need a little more sample size but if I were to stack rank them....
Woody was both a good runner and receiver. IMO he was better than Vereen at both. Vereen might have been a littler better down the field than Woody.
I think Woody is the better runner and pass catcher than Lewis but really need a whole season of Lewis to make that call. He might be better at both. I'm just not there yet.
