This is the first I've seen any video of him running, and while its scarce (maybe 3 runs in the video), but damn he looks fast.

I have 4 games of coaches film that I got from the SID of Chadron State. The first thing that I noticed was that Danny needs space to really be the most effective. His speed is very noticeable, but he is not the type of back that will create his own space. He does not have the bulk to bowl over defenders, and he does not seem effective at juking out defenders in the backfield.

That being said, his speed will get him into a training camp. In the open field he can take advantage of defenders taking bad angles. He also shows a little bit more wiggle in the open field than he does behind the line of scrimmage.

his numbers are undeniable, and it will be interesting to see how he finds a home in the NFL.

Awesome, thanks for the info.Think he could end up as a slot receiver eg. Wes Welker(ish) type?

I have seen Woodhead play, as i went to a D2 school, and follow D2 FB a lot. He seems to me like a guy who could maybe fill a role similar to Darren Sproles. I agree with Cecil, his running style may not translate well to Sundays. There are only two D2 RBs right now I could see playing at this level. Xavier Omon of NW Missouri, and Jamar Brittingham from Bloomsburg.
