In the NFL you have to create your own space and follow your blocks. And you can't hesitate.


Yeah, he can't make anyone miss on a tackle to save his life. Guy has like a 3 yard average per carry because he's hardly aware of the existence of anyone else on the field, not because he's not strong or fast enough.

Is Yeldon dominant? Cause his career ypc is the same as Hills. Hill has the tools to be a good back in the league, but dominant?No.

Hill has a higher ceiling than Yeldon. Stats only tell part of the story.

I don't know about "dominate" mainly because the days of a running back dominating in the NFL are over however I think he will be very good



barring injury I think he should be a productive NFL back.

L. McCoy and J. Charles were pretty damn dominant this past year

But I agree that AP has done it longer than anyone the past 10 years.

JH will flourish with the right team.

depends on who he is drafted by. He has the talent just like Mark Ingram did, but if he is drafted by a team that doesn't utilize his talent then no.

Yep, it isn't too late for him to try and turn it around, but it's almost impossible, really at this stage.

Hill didn't exactly dominate college football
well, in his limited use he did just that. He didn't have a great game against y'all because your defense was jacked up for him to stop the run. But LSU does things that takes away from Jeremy Hill's effectiveness or else he would be a Heismann contender. 1. Their Oline was average at best this season, some OLinemen underachieved. Trai Turner should stay in school, he'll be abused in the NFL his rook season. 2. Miles' run by committee system takes away from Hill's effectiveness. 3. And last Hill has a tendency to not use his size and strength all the time. He is too strong to bring down with arm tackles, but he tries to be too elusive instead of just running downhill and then being elusive once he's in open field. They'll probably correct that in the pros.

Being a north south runner will take you farther these days IMO.

there are very jew that can just make cuts and round around people.

I think Jeremy Hill is a NS runner, and i think he will be a better version of ridley at the least.

Dominance depends on what team takes him.

AP kinda breaks the scale. Shady, Lynch, and MJD have all been fairly dominant backs that were just unstoppable for awhile, and that's just in the last few seasons.

Hill has all the tools to be an exceptionable RB in the league, but I wouldn't call that dominant.

Not at all. Not worthy of being selected before the 5th round. May hang around the league for 3-4 years as an average back at best.
