He is gifted. His ability to stop and change directions while staying explosive throughout is insane. Big fan of his all the way since high school.

He's even smaller than I guessed. Doesn't he have injury concerns? Lots of smallish backs this year. I would rather spend a second on a back with a little better size. Would rather have Kelly in the third or fourth honestly.

One minor injury that he has fully recovered from. He is a Devonte Freeman clone, with a better Jump Cut. not even 21 y/o.

He's compact sure, but he has excellent balance through contact. He is a faster Alvin kamara.

Not really man. My first thought when I read about him was freeman and I watched his tape with confirmation bias thinking he'd be like freeman. And I still didnt think so. Completely different really. Freeman is stronger and runs much harder with much more power.
Walton is good, I'm not hating. Just a different type of runner.

I like the Dion Lewis comp for Walton. I can totally see that.

Your guy Jeremiah thinks differently...
Miami RB Mark Walton has drawn comparisons to Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman, according to NFL Media analyst Daniel Jeremiah.
Jeremiah notes that that Walton has come up "a bunch" in Jeremiah's conversations with NFL evaluators. The former Hurricane tailback missed most of 2017 after undergoing an ankle injury in early October, but he was a star as a sophomore, and was averaging 7.6 yards per carry before going down. "He missed a lot of time last season due to injury, but his skill set is very intriguing to NFL scouts," Jeremiah writes. "He's drawing comparisons to Devonta Freeman." Feb. 5 - 12:54 pm et
