He's got very good vision and he's extremely decisive, those are definitely positive traits. I don't see the elite speed, though, but perhaps the Combine will put egg on my face.
Honestly, the Michigan game exemplified for me why Elliott is overrated. He has some damn good runs up the gut, but he doesn't break too many tackles and his food is already chewed for him by OSU's outstanding runblocking. That's not a knock on Elliott, who is a truly well-rounded RB, but it softens the degree of that positive.
My favorite thing about him is his running form is exemplary; he's always finding a way to fall forward with his very good size. Like I said, I think of Latavius Murray is his ceiling, watching him play. This isn't a guy with a ton of moves, he picks a hole and he goes goes goes.
