Hunt is a pretty solid all around player. When I watch RB I focus a lot of attention on their ability to make defenders miss, and their elusiveness. Hunt has some good moves that for me is a lot of fun to watch. I recall EBF seeing Hunt as a powerful RB, which I don't think is his best asset but he has that too. Just tells me that Hunt has a good overall skill set that different people see different traits that stand out about him.
As far as these evaluations of vision and if RB are missing opportunities goes, I think that is really important and something we should be looking for in all of these players. I appreciate these criticisms and I hope people will keep looking for things like this. If Trent Richardson taught us anything, it is the importance of vision and reading the right holes and assignments. At the same time I think it is something difficult to evaluate as we don't necessarily know the play call or what the reads are for the RB on many of these plays, how they are being coached to read the blocking. I think some of these criticisms are a bit harsh, or at times even inaccurate. As Big Tex pointed out recently, with the benefit of hindsight one could find missed opportunities for any RB. They have to make decisions quickly and they don't always make the right ones. It is not my intent to disuade anyone from these criticisms, I hope people keep looking at this and commenting if they think the player has missed a hole, or should be more patient and so on.
At the same time II think critics should realize that these guys are rookies getting their first taste of NFL speed. You should expect some jitters and mistakes made by them as they get used to their linemen and how defenses are attacking their plays. These are teaching opportunities that coaches don't have until there are actually games played. It's a process
