It's a good write up, I like it!


I've read a few reports on Perine and one thing I've noticed is that a number seem to repeat the line that he hasn't got great hands (sometimes this like appears to have been copied and pasted word-for-word from another review).


I think you are more correct when you say he simply hasn't had that many opportunities. But I've seen nothing in what we have seen to suggest he can't catch.


And as for the top speed, I'm not sure that's a big deal. You are drafting him to break tackles and be a goal-line threat primarily. If he runs through a bunch of players and gets a big gain here or there then great.


Bigger worry for me is that he might not find it so easy to trample over NFL players.


If he can, then he could be our LeGarrett Blount - he's not got the greatest top-speed, but he's been effective enough.
