Think he is the best back in the nation, and also has the best style for the NFL. Gurley has more speed, but that's it. Think hill is the best back in the nation, and gurley right there with him. Sankey is good also, but not better than hill or gurley.


... and Mett is the best QB ever who is going to win the Heisman, LSU has the best talent in the country, the best recruiting class, and the nations elite pedigree. ummmmm ok...

Reality check, he is a decent back, average speed, who takes plays and or games off ... right now, Hill is ranked 6th in his draft class of 2016 behind...

Gurley, Gordon (Wis), Yeldon, Davis (USCe), Johnson (Mia).

Probably will be projected as a 5th round draft pick (in 2016 - if he comes out early, might be later), but that might not take into account the personal character issues that have become center stage at NFL drafts, post Hernandez.

But what do the NFL scouts know...

well they should know that he's going to be in the 2014 draft class

Yet he has the most rushing touchdowns in the country, is averaging 7.2 ypc, and putting up better numbers than Richardson, Ingram or Lacy ever did.

Hill wont make it past the 3rd round. And he will be going pro after this season most likely. Haha at the fact that you said hes a decent back with average speed. 2nd in the SEC in rushing yards, 1st in TDs, and averaging 7.2 YPC, and averaging even more than that between the tackles. A week or 2 ago he was averaging like 9.2 YPC between the tackles. Also has 4 TD runs over 50+ yards. A RB with average speed doesnt break 50+yard runs to the house. They get caught. Hilliard is a back with average speed and he gets caught. Hill doesnt. And he didnt play in the 1st game, and only had 6 carries in game 2. And he is still at the top of the SEC is rushing yards, TDs, and YPC.

When healthy, I thought Gurley was better than him. But thats it.
