I think Etienne is good, but with his style would fit better in a spread scheme than power scheme. He likes to use that speed and it's done when given more open space rather than reading a defense and finding a hole/powering through that hole. Akers fits our offense perfectly which is why they are selling out to get him.

That's what jumps out to me, he is really only effective in space. When he gets to the next level and the LBs are faster he's gonna get bogged down at the LOS. He needs to play in a spread system or somewhere he can line up in the slot if he insists on playing offense. If he changes his mind about that I would love to see LSU line him up at nickel.
