Overview

3 year starter for the Rams. Had 285 yards rushing in the New Mexico Bowl and was the game's MVP.

Did himself no favors by running a 4.75 at the Combine, taking much of the air out of the balloon created by his late-season and bowl-game success. Ran 4.67 and 4.68 at the CSU Pro Day a couple weeks later, but the damage had already been done.

Strengths

Big, strong back who has a little wiggle and move to make a defender miss. Strong between the tackles and can get the corner. Can break arm tackles and plays with good body lean.

Weaknesses

Lacks the homerun speed and can get caught from behind. Needs to show he can be a consistent pass catching threat out of the backfield.

Projection

6-7th rounder.

The only reason he will be drafted is his amazing performance in the new mexico bowl. But is a strong kid, reminds me of a keith faulk in a way.
