Can he be successful? Sure... if we had a great offense already. Which we don't. We suck.

Makes my head spin a little bit.   First round RBs need a broader skill set to earn that value IMO.

I mean - if that reel was supposed to be a top 15... yikes.
Nine of them were simply highlight reels for the blocking up front.  The kid has better vision to the hole than Fournette by far, and better 0-60 acceleration, but he's a one cut and go guy just like LF.  Kinda' eerie.

I still think he can be effective in a tandem with JR, but I feel like I felt when I was saying LF could be effective if we doubled down on run blocking linemen.

If this regime doesn't get both backs involved I'll be incredibly disappointed.
Trying to be cautiously optimistic on this pick.
