| Strengths | Bruising between the tackles sledgehammer type of runner. Runs with abandon and tremendous leg drive. Has shown quick feet when healthy, able to shorten his stride and make sharp cuts without losing momentum. Identifies the hole and attacks quickly. Finishes his runs with determination and power, gets lower in his stance and always falls forward. Very good receiving skills, has shown great hands and an understanding of how to get open. Good in blitz recognition and pickup--ask Everette Brown. Well-built athlete with natural strength. The Wolfpack were a vastly different and superior offense with him on the field; his play clearly inspired his teammates to play better.
|
| Weaknesses | Has an extensive injury history, including what appears to be a chronic issue with his left foot. Missed significant time in both 2007 and 2008 due to foot problems, after missing some time with a neck problem in 2006. Can be stiff and runs high in his stance. Not the type of elusive runner who can make guys miss in the backfield, needs to get his momentum going or else he's a sitting duck.
