There is zero comparison between Russell and Freeman, if we are comparing Freeman to anyone he reminds me of a mobile Dan Marino.
Then you never saw Marino play. Those 2 are absolutely nothing alike. I can't even think of one similarity.
Freeman is most like Daunte Culpepper, but I can see the comparison to Jamarcus Russell as well. Russell just didn't have the maturity to succeed and Freeman does. But they are similar athletically in almost every way.
