Quote:I feel like Ajayi is going to bust out in the NFL as teams realize the man has no moves or cutting ability in his game. He's a one-trick pony dependent on his speed, but he's only a 4.6 guy at that.

Maybe you are thinking of Tevin Coleman when you say he has no moves.  Not sure where you are getting your info, but...

 

From NFL.com on Ajayi:

Strengths:

Good size and great feet. Former soccer player with sudden feet. Able to string together multiple moves at a time. Varies speeds as a runner and can call on second gear when he sees daylight. Hips and feet always in sync thanks to soccer background. Shows enough wiggle to make defenders miss and can create and improvise if creases aren't offering much. Runs with wide base and generates leg drive to push. Plays with bend and bursts through the hole with low pad level. Reliable yards-after-contact back. Accelerates into contact on second level. True weapon out of backfield with adequate hands and good feel for maximizing each catch in space. Twists and turns and fights to fall forward. Asked to be physical, downhill runner between tackles and he obliged. Shows good blitz recognition.

"Of all the backs in this draft, Ajayi might be my favorite because he can do everything you want from a back and you don't have to find a complementary back to pick up the slack for him in any one area." -- AFC scout in charge of grading running backs

 

Abdullah, who you called "the next Beastmode", had a slower 40, his NFL comparison was Andre Ellington, and although he has good hands, the write up said he has issues with pass protection.  I think I'd prefer Ajayi.
