They told him he could be used on offense in the same fashion we used Dural last week, jet sweeps


247 shows a 4.45 40. For those that have seen Dillon play, is that about right? Does he have that initial burst in the first 10 yards that gives him the 4.45 speed or does he have more downhill speed (on the last 10 yards)?

Initial burst. When he was a bit younger, he would almost fall down after the 1st ten yards because of it. He's got wheels for sure and is really a smooth athlete.

His 10 yard split is better than Jeremy Hill's, I bet. Hill had one of the best from the RB position. That's what I think of when I think initial burst. He's very explosive.

I think he'd be used at wildcat QB RB and WR. Put the kid all over the field.
