I’d be very ok just saying his ceiling is Percy Harvin. Who was an outstanding college player & Swiss Army knife.

Or even kenjon barner, cj spiller or lache seastrunk

These were all very good players

Why act like that a RB can't be good at his weight? Nobody expects him to bulldoze his way up the middle on the regular.

That's a common but pretty hilarious take on the situation. Supposedly one of the best RB in the entire nation as a senior all classifications considered.....and he cannot get acclimated to the speed of SEC football? Sounds like hedging to me. Fournette didn't have that problem. I guess Dalton Hilliard should've been redshirted since he went to a 1A school

I don’t think that. I think most backs that size are relegated to gadget back status (percy harvin) or 1B status to a workhorse. There is value in that role when the fit is right. Don’t get that confused with me not thinking smaller RBs can’t be good.

I have only seen 2 or 3 people in all my years around football with his kind of acceleration.... That is the difference he brings.

RB2, Great vision and quick feet, along with acceleration. This guy will get playing time this year. He is to good to sit the bench.

Agree - needs to be in the slot.

I saw a few practice videos where they are running him up the middle. You are wasting him doing this.

Yea that would be a great strategy,only run him to the outside.So when he’s in the game our opponents know he is only going to get the ball on a sweep or a screen pass.That should work . Nott!!
