First of all great work.

I'm only going to focus on Hilliard for a minute. I haven't really seen him before, but the impression I got from those that have is that he is just a big bruising power back and I have to say I think that's a huge injustice to him.

The main reason I say that is he has really quick feet for his size. While he doesn't have that kind of size and is probably a step slower, I really think a fair comparison of his running style is Brandon Jacobs.

I edited it a little. How does it sound now? I agree with your original comments.

Be confident that you are correct. Saw Mr. Hilliard perform a couple of times this year and he was far more impressive than his soph. film displays. He was not only bigger and stronger, as you'd expect, but seemed to have a more explosive start and better stamina than during his previous campaigns. If he improves even the slightest next season I believe he could vie for the top RB spot on the recruiting lists. Like his famous uncle, this Hilliard will be a dominant college player.
