Production plus talent.  Speed, acceleration, home run hitting ability, and massive production.

Watch his college highlight reel, and note the acceleration.

If you remember what the Jaguars could have had with tavian Banks, I think this is what they have with Etienne assuming he's healthy.

Tavian Banks...

Travis Etienne

I think Banks has the edge in long distance speed, but Etienne is plenty explosive, and is better between the tackles.

I see those highlights and pure joy wells up inside me!  I had forgotten what speed at RB looks like until I saw those Banks clips.  Dude could accelerate.  And watching Travis' highlights fills me with hope.  If he can be 95% of what he was before the lisfranc, we're gonna have some fun Sundays.
