I keep forgetting to consider him as a RB, which is a mistake because he played there more than anywhere in the spring.
 
That being said, I think it is a waste of his talent to play him at RB, where we have a number of good options, instead of at WR, where depth is a bigger issue.  Heck, I would play him at TE before I would play him at RB.
 
But I am not DM, and DM seems to like lining him up at RB. 
 
Anyway, as of today, Ashton would probably be our best option at RB in passing situations.  He is plenty big and strong enough to stay in the backfield and pick up the rush, especially blitzers.  He appears to have excellent hands and his blend of power and speed means he would be a major headache for defenses in the open field.  I am hoping when he plays RB, he does so in passing situations, or splits out from the RB position to line up as a WR, where he would often draw man coverage with an LB.  That is a matchup he is going to win on a regular basis.
