He is a guy that appeared to be a sure 1st round pick a year ago, but something seems to be missing, although he still has a lot of skills. His problem is in the area of size. He does have good power and strength, but is not big enough and physical enough to be a workhorse type RB. He almost reminds scouts of a nickel type RBand his pass receiving skills out of the backfield and open field elusiveness is very impressive. He is one guy in this group that has a burst and is very elusive in the open field. However, his lack of size will probably prevent him from being an every down back on the NFL level. While he flashes at times as a return specialist, he has not posted great numbers and he must contribute in this area to raise his NFL value. He has not been used extensively in the passing game, but he appears to have good enough hands to develop. He does have the qualities to make him a big play threat, but he will have to be a situational player and as we all know, guys that don't play on every down don't usually go in the 1st round. He is also been nicked on and off in his career and durability is a minor question mark among NFL scouts.
