Every year we hear Banks is gone. He's a one trick poney. Hasn't happened yet. MS likes Banks as the return guy. Knows he could break something open at anytime. However I think we all get frustrated during the season cause he hardly does. But he does give us decent field position usually. So the question is .... is there something we don't know? Does MS see the blocking breaking down elsewhere, or players hurt who would have opened up a hole, and keeping Banks is not the issue?
Could there be a future speed package? All the fast guys on the field to include Banks at WR or RB?
Half the team is as fast as Banks?

Woah there!..Niles Paul has nowhere near the speed Brandon Banks has. But other than that I agree with everything your saying.
Niles Paul combine time - 4:45
Brandon Banks combine time - 4:43

Brandon Banks got a combine invite? That was supposed to be the deepest draft in years and BB got a combine invite? Insane.

Check his combine 40 yard dash on NFL.com. He clocked in at 4.51 seconds

so niles paul had a good 40 time whatever, when you see him and banks run on the field its not even a question, banks is much faster. when you play football its not a 40 yard dash, and if he was faster you have to think he would have atleast got a chance to return kicks or punts.

It's not Paul Banks needs to worry about. It's Aldrick Robinson.

Banks looks fast because he's so small...

I bet there are several guys on the roster faster than Banks (with pads on).
- Torrence
- Hall
- Griffin III
- Helu
- Moss
- Robinson
- Austin
- Garcon
