Strengths:
Good size and bulk...More quick than fast...Excellent balance...Nice vision...Very strong, tough and powerful...Runs hard and usually falls forward...Great pad level...Above average blocker...Very productive.
Weaknesses:
Did not face much top competition...Not very elusive...Doesn't play as fast as he times...Will have trouble running outside in the pros...Isn't a big play threat...Wasn't really utilized as a receiver...Upside is limited.
Notes:
Could also project to fullback at the next level...Was a four-year-starter...Owns the Tigers career record for rushing touchdowns and is second in rushing yards...Reportedly had the opportunity to play at much bigger programs coming out of high school...Was the 2008 Ohio Valley Conference Offensive Player of the Year...Has dealt with some minor knee injuries...Had two pro prospects (Cornelius Lewis & Cecil Newton) blocking for him...Good all-around player who can compete for a roster spot but probably profiles as more of a backup in the pros.
