Here's my overview of Bo Smile

Overview
Scarbrough can be a runaway locomotive, but he needs a long track to get rolling or his effectiveness will drop sharply. Scarbrough won't make tacklers miss, but he is a brute force who can add yardage to the end of runs. Scarbrough is a one-cut runner who is best in an under-center rushing attack where he can get carries in bunches. He has the talent to be an effective NFL running back, but durability concerns and a lack of pass catching ability could cap where teams are willing to consider drafting him. His explosive testing at the Combine could intrigue teams who had written him off previously.

Strengths
Tapered, powerful physique
Is a punisher behind his pads
Can absorb solid blows and keep runs alive
Will always fall forward once he gets a head of steam behind him
Plays with steady tempo
Has surprising ability to gather weight and cut sharply downhill as outside zone runner
Generally comfortable making reads and choosing track from I-formation
Tackling him high ends poorly for defenders
Able to create additional yardage through power and long speed
Able to batter defenses late in game and then hit the chunk play
Short yardage touchdown specialist who can leap up-and-over the pile
Had dominant stretch against Auburn, Florida, Washington and Clemson late last year
Can thump in blitz pick-up
Hasn't had to handle a heavy workload thanks in part to Alabama's committee approach

Weaknesses
Plays with upright running style
Frame too accessible for big hitters looking for a slab of ribs
Durability is a major concern
Has suffered through multiple lower body injuries dating back to high school
Long strider who needs a long runway to get to top speed
Doesn't have bend and footwork to string moves together
Too big and leggy to counter sudden penetration in backfield and needs runs to stay on schedule
Impatient with a penchant for crowding lead blockers and eliminating his own escape routes
Burst and feel for running lanes is below average
Defenders got hands on him much earlier in the carry than his teammate Damien Harris
Missing second-level vision to play chess against linebackers


Aside from his upright style and injury concerns, most of the weaknesses are teachable.
