It really looks about right. He looks like he compares extremely similarly to Holyfield stylistically,

One of these is not like the other

Admittedly I haven't watched the kid but you really can't be more opposite than Holyfield and Knowshon and I'd much rather have someone who is similar to Knowshon.Its an obvious need with Swift leaving and a more spread out offense.

It’s not far fetched to compare the two. Neither of them had burner speed. Stylistically I thought of Holyfield as more physical and Knowshon as more finesse but both made their money making the first few guys miss. And both guys got run down. A lot.

What’s far more awkward is comparing Knowshon to Swift

To be fair to holyfield, I really think he had good vision and knew when to bounce a play. The net result is similar to someone with great feet and gets slippery through the line (they create opportunities that other backs may miss).

They are very different in styles but the net results can be similar.
