Go to the 2:50 mark and tell me if that looks out of control.  Or 4:55.   In fact, look at this entire video and find me anywhere he looks out of control when evading defenders.  

 

He looks great on those plays.  Especially the PR.

Of course in the second one he doesn't really have to do a thing except juke a DB at the end but he did so nicely. 

 

Watch the Oregon 2016 cut-up and you'll see what I'm talking about. There's a bit less patience and control and a bit more flailing toward a crease and it doesn't always end well. He still had 135 yards rushing in that game and another 50 through the air. It wasn't "bad" but some of the off-balance stuff stood out to me. 

 

I like him a lot.  I don't know that I like him at #4 -  but my critique of him is a minor one.  I would feel we got a good versatile back if they did take him early.   I mean -  I compared him the Reggie Bush didn't I?
