Reminds no one of beast mode in Seattle? Deceptive speed and a bruiser



Hill isn't a bruiser. He's got the size, but he doesn't bull doze people like beastmode. Instead he's big enough to take hits without getting hurt. I like the foster comparison, but believe he's less injury prone

Yea, Deuce became a bruiser out of necessity, but he and Hill were very similar early in his career. I don't like the Foster comparison. He's a stiff one cut and go runner. Hill, as big as he is, is a bit more shifty with better feet IMO.

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.



Best comparison IMO.

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.



Foster has some great cuts, though, but both are pretty damn similar in terms of actual running style.

When deuce was at OM they looked very similar. Hill is more agile and Deuce ran with more power but very similar IMO. He grew a lot when he got to the pros and so will Jeremy. Hill should run with more power at the end of his runs he would be that much more hard for a saftey or linebacker to tackle him.
