I think he lacks the agility and quick twitch to be a starter in the NFL. He has the speed to get to the corner and the burst to get to the second level but to get there he has to have a huge hole.


This - he can make these criticisms go away if he shows agility at the point of attack and proves he can grind it out when the holes aren't so big.

The second half of #4 couldn't be more wrong.


I'm not talking about now, where he hesitates and then pushes some scrub LB a couple of yards before being brought down.

I'm talking about lining up on a 3rd and 1, with everyone stacked on the line and him hitting the assigned hole decisively and with power to move the chains. He doesn't do that. He looks to bounce it outside too much.

Yeah, doing it that one time proves his tendency is not to hesitate. I hope he proves me wrong. He's too big of a man to run the way he does.
