maybe.. but can you point to a single run where he changed fields, or made a bunch of guys miss?  We run a bunch of down hill plays where we burst thru clean and thats great.  We dont run much in the sweep game to really show that ability.  You can make a lot of runs where you make 1 guy miss and gain yds, but thats not what the NFL generally is about. He has shown an ability to catch and that helps.

Look at our guys who had some NFL ability.. Carter was a load to bring down and had some moves before he got hurt.  Brinkley didnt have the elite speed but he had that wiggle in the hole that made him very hard to tackle and had a decent NFL career off of that.

After that.. Bailey/Gulley  too small .  Jerome big enough but not elusive with enough speed. then Neal was a nice College RB.

Its been a long time for us.

He really needs to get drafted by the right team that fits his skill set.   It would be great if the track speed he worked on showed another gear this year.
