Official Bio
|
Strengths:
Good size...A very good athlete...Plays faster than he times..A natural runner with excellent vision and instincts..Strong, tough and powerful...Runs hard and doesn't go down easily...Great feet...Terrific balance and agility...Soft hands and can catch the ball out of the backfield...An adequate blocker..Was extraordinarily productive.
Weaknesses:
Doesn't have great speed and lacks a burst...May have trouble turning the corner in the pros...Isn't a big play threat...Runs too tall...Has a lot of mileage on his tires and durability might be an issue...May have some minor character concerns...Has a thin frame and may need to bulk up..Didn't always play against top competition.
Notes:
In 2007 he made a serious run at Barry Sanders single-season Division I rushing record (2,628) but fell 61 yards short...Lightly recruited out of high school and his only two Division I scholarship offers came from UCF and Akron..A good all-around player who does everything well but nothing great...Is not quite the prospect that his press clippings would lead you to believe but is the type who could outperform his draft slot...Has starting potential and could end up being a steal for someone.
