    probably around round 5. he could be a solid 3rd down back. I dont see a lot of explosion or burst when I see him play but he will make a depth chart somewhere

    he's only been there for 3...anyway, he's too patient and too slow to make any sort of strong impact on a team. the only reason he left early was because he wasn't going to have the same kind of year as he did last year. that's not because he had that good of a year, but b/c younger players are going to challenge him for playing time (and would probably win out). i like that he can catch very well out of the backfield, but he doesn't have the speed or quickness to make it on the next level

    He's got vision and footwork you can't teach. He has nice hands out of the backfield. If I have a guy like Tomlinson and I want a reliable backup I take this guy at the end of the first day. He might surprise some people. He had no problem beating guys to the corner, and he doesn't waste motion. Look, the guys not going to be a star, but he's a nice player.

    He'd probably make a good change of pace back. My guess would be he goes anywhere from late 3rd round to late 4th.

    I'm sorry but I definitely disagree about him beating guys to the corner. He can't beat anyone to the corner. He's a great receiver out of the backfield, but you can't ask him to run to the outside. He just can't do it. He ends up going sideways until he's out of bounds.
