His 40 times are shockingly bad for his elite breakaway speed. And yes he does have elite breakaway speed, he's the only RB besides Trindon Holliday and Keiland Williams who could just run away from LBs and even DBs.

Funny thing is, he is doing EXACTLY, what he did at LSU. breaking off these long runs. He has about 3-4 from 50+ yards out.

Well, it's just not true that he could run away from DBs; they were all faster than him. What a lot of people, who focus on 40 times, don't realize is that the difference between 4.6 and 4.5 speed is probably only three feet over the course of a long run. There are plenty of RBs with 5.0 speed who have the cuts and power to get the job done. Those guys can be run down from five yards back, but a 4.6 cannot.
