Yeah, I think one outlet put out he was a high-school track guy but so too is every RB on the planet. I was curious about his speed because he looks 4.50 on tape but then you have him posting his own workout on Twitter and it's 4.33-4.39. I have a tough time believing 4.3x. He's faster than a lot of backs but he doesn't look
that fast. In any event, you can see on tape what he is/isn't.
No, there is no knock about his use in the passing game. He was one of the higher-used pass-receiving backs in the country the past couple of seasons. He also runs good routes out of the backfield and is pretty sure-handed.
The issue is definitely pass-blocking but so few college players are good pass blockers so I'm not sure its going to be a major strike.
The big worry is why was he medically red-flagged at the combine. It's why I've been hesitant putting him in any mocks. I'm just operating under the assumption that he's well enough.
