I think the way his whole situation has played out has really hurt him. I think he was definitely playing hurt all of last year. The scheme really hurt him last year as well, it was not well suited to his skill set nor very focused on effectively running the ball to begin with not to mention the OL issues compounded all of this. So his 2022 tape is noticeably worse. 2021 is spectacular. Then add this is a historically deep draft class at the RB position. Bijan Robinson is getting all the attention but there are a legit 20 guys in the second tier behind him and they are all ballers and either legit starting caliber NFL running backs or excellent role players. In this class I think he is legitimately among the top 5 backs and would go between the late 2nd to late 3rd. But with the medical question marks combined with him not running and putting any kind of speed or agility numbers on record, he's going to be looked at as either a suspect or incomplete evaluation and with so much available depth that's going to hurt him. He could easily drop to the late rounds or not be drafted at all. I think he will definitely make it into a practice camp, and if fully healthy there's no way he won't make a roster. Kid is just too talented and too determined.
