Junior-college transfer that made a big impact on the Kansas State program when he arrived two seasons ago. Totaled 66/292/4.4/2 carrying the ball and 15/108/7.2/0 receiving as a senior after posting 46/278/6.0/5 on the ground as a junior.

Hard-working lead fullback that likes to do the dirty work. Breaks down well, plays with leverage and accelerates into his blocks, looking to take opponents out. Effective in a straight line or on the outside and creates space blocking for his runner. Displays intelligence and vision. Effectively seals his blocks and redirects to oncoming opponents. Displays footwork in pass protection and effective with his hands. Runs low to the ground and gets around the corner carrying the ball. Not explosive off the snap, stiff and does not finish his blocks. Shorter than what you'd like to have in your lead fullback but a hard worker that competes and scraper that may be tough to keep down. Late Sixth Round.
