re: 2014 Dream Team

Bowtie, I was just able to watch his film (Junior year, I think). His team runs a wide open offense, so all of his highlights show him out in space (and of course, he looks good at it). But there is nothing with him following a fullback into a hole for some tough yardage.
He obviously catches the ball well. In fact, if you look at his soph stats, he had almost 500 receiving yards. He doesn't seem very explosive, but he appears to have good vision and elite balance. If you want to get him on the ground, you had better wrap up and tackle, or else he is going to keep running.
After seeing his highlights this morning, I now consider him much more similar to Palelei than to a legitimate tailback. And to be honest, I liked Palelei's video a lot more. But again, it is doing the kid a disservice to never see him line up as a tailback. Perhaps he could be dynamite in that role.

Well, that's why these Coaches are paid so well, right? Projecting kids and how you want to use them means everything!
