Summary He has risen towards the top of the RB class with good late season performances and solid All-Star games.. He has good overall skills, but has been hindered by injuries early in his career. He is another RB with good vision and run skills, and he shows balance and toughness through the hole. He is the type of player that can make the first defender miss, but has some trouble with elusiveness in the open field....He will catch the ball out of the backfield better than many think, and he can also block and return kicks.. If he is used properly, he can become a workhorse type RB that can contribute to an NFL team in a lot of areas. This is a sneaky type RB. He is not real flashy, but he produces on the field and would be a steal for some NFL team. There may be something a little special about this guy that isn’t easy to see.
