Wonder which side of the Mason Dixon line he grew up in.

+100. How that was NOT an ESPN play of the year candidate, I have no idea! That run was CRAZY! The thing about it is, I knew about this guy and STILL hadn't seen this video clip.
Total steal. Great value!

those clips show more than just big runs, highlight stiff arms and bull dozing. it shows a back that runs way too upright as soon as he gets the ball. not gonna cut in the NFL. dude needs to get those pads lower if he wants to survive. and what about his blocking?

I have seen him play a number of times, and each time I come away impresses. He has all the skills you want except breakaway speed.
One thing I was thinking about is if he can play fullback? This is not based on anything other than size. He would not be in the mold of M. Norris, but he could be an upgrade over M. Robinson (as a back up fullback).

true, but there is a reason this guy went after many other backs. I hope he is the real deal for us. we shall see.

AP is a tiny bit faster and just a weeee bit more agile. But this kid looks like the real deal as far as I can see(youtube)

I was impressed by the videos, but I'm keeping my expectations low. With that said, he reminds me of Gore with the way he runs.

This fellow seems to attack the line of scrimmage hard. It will be interesting to see what he does in preseason. He as style for a big man.

He's a bad ass but look at all the carries he had in college. 910 carries! That's alot of mileage for a RB.
