Official Bio
|
Strengths:
Great instincts and vision...Patient runner...Nice balance...Quick and plays faster than he times...Tough...Terrific stiff arm...Has some wiggle and will break tackles...Decent strength and power...Appears to have soft hands...Has shown the ability to be a big play threat...Can also contribute as a return man...Coming off a strong senior campaign.
Weaknesses:
Just average size and bulk...Doesn't have elite speed...Durability is a major question mark...Has never carried the load or been a workhorse...Limited experience running inside...Wasn't really utilized as a receiver ...Played in a spread offense...May not have much upside.
Notes:
Split carries with Jonathan Stewart and LeGarrette Blount in college...Was a team captain...Tore his right ACL in 2007...Played most of the 2008 season hurt after his shoulder was popped out of its socket early in the year...Solid player who doesn't really stand out in any one area... Profiles as a backup or change-of-pace type in the pros.
