I see what you're saying, but Addai's shimmies never worked that well. Honestly as a runner he reminds me of JT with less fumble issues, and as a receiver, when he catches the ball he reminds me of Edge, but he has to get more consistent with catching the ball. Honestly the place he reminds me most of Addai is pass pro, where he's willing but not great at it, but that's a step up from unwilling JT.

#5 No situational awareness or football sense. People want to point out the Denver game, but his gawd awful performance in the Giants game put him on my shit list.

There are two parts of football that are all about effort and desire for a RB, IMO at least. They are protecting the football (keeping fumbles to a minimum) and pass pro. JT sucks at both, which tells me he has all the talent in the world and no or very little desire to improve.
