Dont think hes that similar to either of them...

Isnt as physical as Jackson, and is more athletic than Blount.

Reminds me of Foster. Not saying he will have as good a career as Foster. But running style is similar. Big, smooth, and great in the open field. Great vision and balance.

I've said this a few times on here. Go watch Foster's highlights, and Hill is almost an exact copy. Both big and quick, but not power backs. Both have the hands to catch out of the backfield. Amazing vision, feet, and elusiveness for such a large frame. Now Hill can push a pile more so I believe he is stronger, but he's not the kind to lay you out on a hit.



Thing is, Fournette fits into this same category, but is as fast as a scat back, and is a very powerful runner. I just can't wait to get this guy here. I like that he does contact when necessary instead of just trying to bull ahead like Richardson, and most backs do. He's a smart runner with the strength and sheer power, to back it up.

Best comparison IMO.
