You can’t be too light, but you do need strength and toughness if you are on the lighter side and those things can come with reps, weight room, and age.

He has all the tools, but played in a lower classification of football. He probably won't see much action vs Clemson, but vs Tech and South Eastern he should get some serious touches.

what matters is playing fast, staying in control, and having good vision. If you can do those things, everything else will fall into place.
I’ll add “holding on to the football”.

I agree, plus it's not a deep room so Durham needs to rest when he can.

I think what size you should be at the RB is subjective. Exhibit A, Kaleb Jackson.
Berry weighed between 175 to 185 pounds in high school; he is now at 190 pounds, which is where he should stay—there's no need to lose explosiveness. That explosiveness and vision are what made him a 5-star player.

This cats got speed and a motor like youve never seen! His nicknams around my parts is "the blur" and for good reason! He will look to shater records for sure!

That’d be great if he were a WR

I think he’s fine. He housed’ one today in full pads vs our supposedly highly improved defense. Most of the time he’s just gonna be faster than the defenders, you don’t always have it power over a defender to be a good RB

nope. you just have to run at full speed north/south without the fear of being obliterated by a much larger human.

James Cook should be a WR too huh, make it make sense Lester.

Tony was also shorter and had thighs like dalton hilliard

The word I've seen is that he's talented but still adjusting to a big jump in competition. He's pretty slight and needs to put on some weight. If I had to bet, he won't get a lot of run this year. Maybe 5-8 plays a game to spell Durham and Jackson.
