Quote:Beastmode? You must be watching the wrong RB. That terms suggests a tough RB who can bruise his way through defenders. Ajayi is about running around defenders as he's afraid to be touched. Now that's ok as even FT was the type to run around defenders, although he'd bruise his way when if he had to. The thing is, for being that kind of runner, Ajayi lacks the kind of cutting ability you see in great RBs, and
in the 40 he ran a mere 4.57. I seriously don't understand all this love for Ajayi, and I get the feeling he's going to get hurt and bust out in the NFL. I just can't shake that feeling about him.
 

Quote:<a class="bbc_url" href='http://www.nfl.com/draft/2015/profiles/jay-ajayi?id=2552582'>http://www.nfl.com/draft/2015/profiles/jay-ajayi?id=2552582</a>
 

And on the flipside, from CBS's NFL Draft site:

 

Quote:<b>WEAKNESSES:</b> Has added bulk to his frame and runs hard, but lacks ideal power to consistently run through arm tackles as an inside runner. Needs to break more tackles and not allow ankle biters to bring him down. Relies too much on bouncing runs outside and will get himself in trouble trying to string runs out. Plays too fast at times and needs to better avoid bodies in tight spaces. Good, but not great, speed and can be caught from behind. Prefers to run away from contact at times and will lose yardage. Needs to improve his ball security with 12 career fumbles (seven lost). Appears to wear down late in games, taking a lot of hits in Boise State's offense with a heavy volume of touches the past two seasons. Needs work in pass protection with his technique and strength to sustain both lacking. Some past character issues that need vetted, including an Oct. 2011 arrest for stealing sweatpants from a Wal-Mart near campus (plead guilty to misdemeanor, served five days in jail and eight hours of classes) -- banned from 2011 bowl game, suspended for the 2012 season opener and was forced to work his way back into the good graces of the coaches. Shredded his right knee in Oct. 2011 and has dealt with other minor injuries. Soccer was his first love and he considered going that direction after high school to play overseas.
 
 

I actually like Ajayi but I don't see the Lynch comparison.
