Figured I'd start a thread for my favorite of this year's day three RBs. Small school guy who went in the late 4th round to AZ despite having an injury-plagued senior season on a weak team. Not a phenomenal athlete on paper at 5'9" 205 with 4.55 speed, but has a 10'2" broad jump and shows some good acceleration/initial burst on the field. Deceptive strength and power, but his best attribute is definitely his agility/cutting ability. He's one of the best in this draft in that department.
He's capable of some joystick moves and also shows some good things as a receiver. His highlights in general show a good east-west cutting ability reminiscent of someone like Matt Forte (different body type).
Obviously he's not going to beat out DJ as a rookie, but I'm a huge buyer at his current ADP in the 3rd-4th round of rookie drafts. Worth a shot there, IMO. I'd be higher on him if he were a little bit bigger and faster, but as it is he might have the running ability and versatility to emerge as a useful player in the future.
