The first thing that stands out is his ability to jump cut, his patience setting up blocks, and the way he squeezes through the smallest cracks to gain yardage. He can also catch passes out of the backfield, which should make the offense less predictable. He seems to lack home run speed, which might hurt his stock.
I'm hearing mixed messages on his pass blocking, but he seems quite willing to block for his quarterback.
Did I mention his father is a marine?
Seems like an option in round 2.
Currently projects at the bottom of 3rd/4th round, so Pats could easily have him with one of the 3rd round picks. Pats were reportedly watching him. So that pick seems certainly very possible. I wouldn't mind that at all.
Samaje Perine could be available there as well. James Conner further down.
Id be perfectly happy with any of these three in the middle rounds.
