Broncos 2017 Draftday(s) Thread: 04/27-04/29

[sneakers]

Who will the broncos pick?

How many people will watch more than 5 minutes of the Draft?

Who will get really excited about an UFA rookie only to forget about him 3 days later?

Who will be the first long snapper drafted?

[underrated29]

I plan to watch as much as possible

[Hawgdriver]

Hey, I'm thinking about hitting a local sportsbar if any of you townies on the south side wanna grab some beverages. Plans are open so PM or hit me in the thread here.

[Hawgdriver]

I think Reuben Foster is going to be the next Bronco.

[WARHORSE]

I think Reuben Foster is going to be the next Bronco.
.

That would be a splash I would thoroughly enjoy.

It would mean we move up for sure which I think will happen....Broncos arent bringing in 10 players. I think we move from our spot.

[DT88TheGreat]

It really doesn't mean we move up at all, plenty mocks have Reuben going after we pick, if he slips the way some expect him too because of the urine sample at the combine he will be right there at 20.

[DT88TheGreat]

It's finally here though, time to start getting better this evening! 3 of the picks are in round 7 so we really don't have this ton of picks like some people think. They'll be lucky if one of the 3 7 rounders stick. Besides the Broncos do have alpt of holes, I'm not falling into the trap of thinking we are just a couple of pieces away when we have holes at WR, need 2 TE, need another RB, ILB, and they definitely need to take about 3 swings on the OL. We need every last one of the actual 7 picks we have, of course I say 7 because the final 3 are all in round 7 and nobody is kicking down the door for those picks and it's smarter to swing on all 3 and hope 1 sticks. It is time for elway to draft 7-8 guy's who contributes or ends up contributing after striking out on so many picks.

[Valar Morghulis]

I will watch tonight and tomorrow, looking forward to drafting high and trading Paxton......

[Hawgdriver]

Yeah, I have him going to Broncos at 20. He could land to a few other teams earlier, probably should, but he didn't when I looked at it as closely as I could. I looked at it with very risk-averse perspective as GM--go with what helps you win now, is a solid pick, and so on. Could go to Bengals, that one makes a lot of sense. Then again to Saints or Indy. Then there is this scrum of value meets impact near the middle of the round. It's close. Hard to know how much they are concerned with the shoulder.

[Jsteve01]

I've done an about-face on the tackle position. I really felt like okay most of these guys aren't as talented as in years past or actually not necessarily I think all three of them are very talented but they have big red flags and limited starter experience for Ryan and Garrett. But the thing that really became clear to me as I evaluated in the past few days was this draft is full of Playmakers on both sides of the ball so if you know you can get value at running back in round 3 and Round 4 and you can pick up a slot receiver like Dede Westbrook on the second or third day then you may have to go tackle early because there is nothing after the first two rounds to be excited about.

[DT88TheGreat]

As much as I want Foster I wouldn't be surprised if the pick is one of the tackles. For reason you just stated, however is ty sambrello is as big and strong as coaches and Denver report's say he is now then elway may just allow his 2nd round pick too have a shot at LT as he was just drafted 2 years ago to be. And I wouldn't be mad at that because I'm about tired of striking out in rounds 2 and 3. Ty always had the talent he just wasn't ready and the injuries stopped him from being able to lift and get stronger, it's impossible to lift when your elbow is ruined lol.

We will know by this evening what the front office and staff thinks of Ty. If there's no Robinson or bolles or Ryan @ 20 then ty it is! And I will absolutely roll with it because I still want to give the kid a shot. Technique can be taught, he has the ability, but he was just weak as ever to be playing against grown men.

The NFL pass rushers are damn near super natural, we have the best in Von Miller and when you see Miller throw and flip a guy like kelce with ONE ARM it just shows you the type of animal you're dealing with in the pro's. Whoever the tackles are going to be will surely be battle tested facing Miller, Ray, Barrett, so the coaches will have an idea of how decent or how terrible out edge blockers will be early.

[Davii]

(Almost) Anyone here in New Orleans is welcome to come watch at my place.

[VonDoom]

I don't see it, but stranger things have happened. To me, the sweet spot to move up (if we're going to) is around 15. Have to see how the board is falling by then - if QB's are going, it'll push a talented player down.

Plus if we really like Cam Robinson (hypothetically), the rumor is that the Ravens take him at 16. So that would be the time to strike. The uncertainty is what makes watching the draft so much fun, though. Just picked up some beers and my buddy is coming over tonight and watching. Good times!

[VonDoom]

Okay, who do you think we're looking for?

Adam Schefter‏Verified account @AdamSchefter 10m10 minutes ago

Plenty of teams want to move back; here's one trying to move up. Broncos exploring options of moving up in draft, per sources.

[VonDoom]

Some guy on the Orange Mane claims he has "sources" that say we want to trade up for Barnett, but if he's not there, we'll stay put and draft TJ Watt at 20. That would be awful, so I'm hoping that guy is just full of it.

Why would that be awful?

[CoachChaz]

All this talk of moving up and if we had just let Oakland win that last meaningless game...we'd be picking in the 15-17 range. Thanks for the parting gift, Kubes!

Yeah, damn you Kubes for doing your job and winning an NFL game. We would have much preferred you take the NBA loser tact of falling on your face on purpose.

It was a sarcastic comment

[VonDoom]

If we're trading up, I want it to be for like Foster or McCaffrey or something. And why would we want Watt at 20? So many bigger needs.

[NightTerror218]

Many teams looking to trade back. Elway may be able to have a steal move up. Come on 1st and 5th to move up.

[Magnificent Seven]

Happy NFL Draft Day, Everyone!

10466 10467

[NightTerror218]

Elway alalways seems to have a player in mi d who he wants but sticks to his board. He wants bolles but if a higher rated player slips he could move up for them. Or trade down for the guy he wants. I am thinking lynch ray and wolfe all had trades involved.two trades up

[weazel]

I have beers with a buddy for the draft every year.

[slim]

If we're trading up, I want it to be for like Foster or McCaffrey or something. And why would we want Watt at 20? So many bigger needs.

Oh, well I don't think we should be drafting for need. But that's just me.

[VonDoom]

Oh, well I don't think we should be drafting for need. But that's just me.

I get that concept but most teams draft BPA to fill a need. I'd have to see what the board is like at 20, but it seems unlikely that Watt would fit that criteria.

[MasterShake]

Days like this always remind me that while I consider myself a football fan, there are people that are waaay more into it than me. I don't watch College Football outside of a few games, I've played Fantasy Football once, and while the draft interests me I wouldn't even know where to start making a mock draft. Sometimes I watch the first pick but after that I just wait for the text alerts to see who we get in later rounds. I have a coworker who took today off and is having a party to watch it through the weekend. That's dedication!

I'll be riveted tonight and I'll probably watch most of tomorrow live. By Saturday, I have other things I have to do with my life and I just check the internet when we're about to pick.

Yeah even with the first pick I just kind of see when it might happen and then check it out then. I just can't imagine sitting through all the picks live for the 1st round. Plus it seems like Social Media has the picks right before they even announce them sometimes.

[GEM]

104.3 is reporting that the Broncos are in talks to move up to #5...woah!

[slim]

For who?

McC

McC

Oh Lord. I love Mac, but that would be stupid.

[GEM]

Stoke and the new guy are saying McCaffrey. That is going to cost a shit ton! Not sure I'm on board with that. Geez@!

[GEM]

Shefter came out about an hour ago saying that a lot of teams looking to move down, one team looking to move up and it's Denver. Then about 5 minutes ago they say there is a report that Broncos are talking with Tennessee about trading up. Not sure who is reporting this.

[chazoe60]

Could be Foster too.

[FanInAZ]

I wonder if FaninAZ is having a draft party?

Yes, at Culver's so I can watch the 1st round of the draft & the D-Backs on separate screens. No, you and your hookers aren't invited.

[GEM]

I freaking love draft day. :dance: Like a kid on Christmas kind of love!

The talk about trading up to 5 came from Jason Cole of Bleacher Report.

It'd have to be McCaffrey or Howard, if we're looking that far up. I hope we don't do it, because it would cost us an enormous amount. Hard to tell what to believe until the draft actually starts.

[GEM]

Ok, so it's Jason Cole and apparently he's just piggy backing off of Shefter. So I'm not sure if he's got any proof or if he's just putting his own spin on Shefter's report.

Roby + a 3d to move from 20 to 5. Hm.. Tennessee would be chill with that. Tell you what, tonight just got more interesting for us.

Wut?

Is that really our offer? I don't know if I like that

[Hawgdriver]

I am speculating. Tennessee would love to have Roby on their roster, that seems plain.

[Buff]

Roby + a 3d to move from 20 to 5. Hm.. Tennessee would be chill with that. Tell you what, tonight just got more interesting for us.

I don't know where this originated from, but I'll play ball. Talib has only got 1-2 more years of playing at his level. The DB dropoff is fast and steep. I view Roby as a cornerstone - I would worry that we'd just be robbing Peter to pay Paul here.

[Mike]

I freaking love draft day. :dance: Like a kid on Christmas kind of love!

Right up until Denver makes it's first pick....then it's a WTF just happened kind of day. Half the fun of draft day is the watching the meltdowns.

[Hawgdriver]

This trade up to #5 talk might be smoke, might be PR-preventative ('see guys, I tried')...

[VonDoom]

I'm going to say that Elway made a call, especially since the Titans have been open about wanting to trade down. Doing his homework. But I can't see actually going through with it and crippling the rest of the draft (and maybe next year's) for one guy.

Honesty, I hope we use one of our 7's to move up. 😁

[GEM]

No worse than the stupid deal Stokely brought up.....Trade 1sts and Talib for #5. Talib is a centerpiece, those guys feed off of him, you cut off his head and there is no one to take over that heart of the defense.

[CoachChaz]

And Rappaport just said Denver is looking to move up 3-5 spots to make sure they get the OT they want.

Everyone has a story today.

I haven't listened to sports radio in months, this is the first day and the draft is the only reason why....I just love the stories. :D

[chazoe60]

We don't have to move up to get a mediocre OT, we can get one of those at 20. Giving up anything in this draft for any one of those 3 Ts would be a bad bad move IMHO.

[VonDoom]

The only justification I can come up with for a small move up for an OT would be if they had one guy graded way above the other two and wanted to make sure they specifically got him, and not just "one of the OT".

[slim]

I hope we trade our 2nd round pick for Joe Thomas.

[chazoe60]

I hope we trade our 2nd round pick for Joe Thomas.

I'll take that.

I'll take that.

Cleveland is not stupid enough to hang DeShaun Watson out to dry like that. They are actually trying to win! Hard to believe, huh?

[MOtorboat]

Going up to 5 to get Tribusky. Book it.

[Slick]

The national anthem before the draft? El o el.

[DT88TheGreat]

If we trade away all of our picks to get up too pick 5 and take Christian The Broncos are draft losers. If you are going to go up that far then take.the best RB in the draft in fournette.

[DT88TheGreat]

That would be even worst than going up there to get Christian. Tribusky has bust written all over him.

[NightTerror218]

Heard a lot of talk for McCaffery as the best RB. Saw one Twitter one GM said he had the best combine he has ever seen. Its a mixed bag becayse it depends on your offense. Put him on tbe patriots he would be an annual pro bowler no doubts. Put him into the wrong syatem he could fade out. But in open space he is probably the best RB and that with hia good receiving is why he is so high on lists.

[honz]

My sources say Broncos trying to move up to #5 to draft the best safety in the draft - Marcus Williams out of Utah. Audiobook it!!!

[Hawgdriver]

Checking in. Who's up in this?

[honz]

***I should not that my source is Marcus William's Mom and auntie Sheila.

I don't know. He changed his name from Mitch to Mitchell. Seems pretty serious about this.

Not many i would trade i like this for. Foster Howard
allen.

Holes and immediate staters are at DL OL ILB and TE. Only reason i see the need for a big trade up.

I'm here.

Gave up a lot! A 3d and a 4th and a similar pick in '18????

Bye-bye Cutler. Hope you enjoyed your stay in the Windy City, I know Bears fans haven't.

Lynch swooped them for 4 picks to move up on spot

Lol is the only rational response.

That was a shocking move. Now here goes a run on QBs this might help Christian McCaffrey fall.

[ShaneFalco]

Titans pick Corey Davis WR

[DT88TheGreat]

Davis is a great pick, was my #1 WR in the draft.

[DT88TheGreat]

Thank god the rumors of Denver trading up t 5 were false. We need to stay put. We will have all of our guy's fall right in our lap, whether it be LT,Njoku, etc imo.

So far the experts have only been right on two picks.

[Hawgdriver]

Davis is a great pick, was my #1 WR in the draft.

I think it was really close between him and Williams. Look forward to watching that horse-race over the course of their careers. I think they are both studs.

[ShaneFalco]

@DraftDiamonds

Cleveland trying to trade for COUSINS, DAMN

[DT88TheGreat]

And can somebody please take Christian before anybody in the front office gets jumpy, and our fans can move on from Christian lol.

[DT88TheGreat]

@DraftDiamonds

Cleveland trying to trade for COUSINS, DAMN

Not going to happen though, report's are that Washington has zero interest, also cousin's only said he'd accept a trade to the 49ers.

[Tebowtime2011]

Damn. I really hope the chargers don't get Malik Hooker.

[DT88TheGreat]

I think it was really close between him and Williams. Look forward to watching that horse-race over the course of their careers. I think they are both studs.

Word up, I give Davis the edge because of his ball skills though, the way this guy attacks the ball in the air, in traffic and has very good run after the catch ability/speed makes him a complete package. Williams is more of a Irvin type of possession WR who will bail his QB out all the time with that size and strength.

[DT88TheGreat]

Damn. I really hope the chargers don't get Malik Hooker.

If they pass on Malik then they are fools.

I say it's ******* Garrett Bolles. And they may move up to #18 and give up an extra pick to get him. Hurrah! :coffee:

BTW: I'd be totally fine with Foster or Reddick. Lattimore will be 10 picks gone by the time the Broncos draft. He's the #1 CB in this class and a top 5 talent on a lot of mock drafts. No way in God's Green Earth he falls to #20 and the Broncos aren't moving up for a CB, no matter how good.

Obviously if he fell to #20 they would take him and probably deal one of their other CBs.

[slim]

I am disappointed. I won't lie.

With Dalton and McCarron, I'm no sue that's getting value for the Bagels.

Amazing that this is still a possibility

[slim]

**** Deshaun Watson. TRADE UP FOR JOHNATHAN ALLEN!

Okay, I guess I can. But Im really not attracted to him.

[Hawgdriver]

The Alex Smyth Effecte.

[slim]

Njuko?

Oh Lord....

[Cugel]

Looks line Shane will be switching to de-Caff...

What was it Ted Striker said in Airplane? "looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue."

10472

[dogfish]

I am disappointed. I won't lie.

you need MO to hold you. . .




Don't be surprised if it is Mixon at 20.

law just don't go 'round here, lawdog. . . :tsk:

That wasn't Ted Striker, he was the younger guy with the "drinking problem" (kept missing his mouth every time he tried to take a drink of alcohol).

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

I think someone is going to fall to us. Do we trade up and grab Foster?

[MOtorboat]

Okay, I guess I can. But Im really not attracted to him.

I call bull.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

I love the quarter backs coming off the board

[slim]

I think someone is going to fall to us. Do we trade up and grab Foster?

I am sure at least one player will fall to us.

[sneakers]

hahha cheifs

[slim]

I call bull.

I wouldn't lie to u

[DenBronx]

What's funny is there are 2 QBs that have already went before Watson.

[slim]

Poor DC. If I liked him I would feel sorry for him.

[LawDog]

you need MO to hold you. . .





law just don't go 'round here, lawdog. . . :tsk:

You gonna do something, or just stand there and bleed?

[PatriotsGuy]

I am sure at least one player will fall to us.

This is why I visit this board.

[G_Money]

The upward mobility of middling QBs always helps those teams in the middle of the first who have no need for one. Every better player getting pushed down to us helps.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

This is why I visit this board.

Psssh-

[Hawgdriver]

see, this is why no one wants to hang out with lawyers. . . :D


king, take note while there's still time, man. . .

I hate those ******** with an LC-for-Tebowian passion.

Lawyers.

Not cugel and kinger.

[honz]

Here goes Watson to Saints...

[slim]

This is why I visit this board.

We dive deep, Pags. Its what we do.

[slim]

Psssh-

Don't hate

[NightTerror218]

I knew a run on QBs would cause some good talent to drop.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

I hate those ******** with an LC-for-Tebowian passion.

Lawyers.

Not cugel and kinger.

Haha, what area of law do you specialize in?

[Hawgdriver]

This is why I visit this board.

I'm telling you guys...this guy is the cubic zirconia in our tiara.

[OrangeHoof]

I posted on another board that any coach that would risk their career to trade up for a Texas Tech spread offense quarterback needs to be drug tested and...voila!

[LawDog]

I hate those ******** with an LC-for-Tebowian passion.

Lawyers.

Not cugel and kinger.

Ahem...

[Hawgdriver]

Haha, what area of law do you specialize in?

Intellectual property mainly.

[Hawgdriver]

Ahem...

Mmmhmm. Not saying I won't have a beer with ya.

[honz]

Is the New Orleans Select an expansion team?

[Slick]

Let's see a run on tacos. Hopefully they're all gone by 20.

[VonDoom]

Browns take Watson here or nah?

[dogfish]

What's funny is there are 2 QBs that have already went before Watson.

that kid is more than a little salty right now. . . .

[slim]

Oh man. That sounds great. I could use a taco

[honz]

Let's see a run on tacos. Hopefully they're all gone by 20.

I could go for about 10 tacos between now and the Broncos pick!

[MOtorboat]

Slim, do you have "hip fluidity"?

[VonDoom]

Texans traded up - gotta be for Watson

[Hawgdriver]

Browns take Watson here or nah?

Tell you what...with AssWhoop Allen on the board, you take that man. You take that man and you become the Broncos 2.0.

[slim]

Slim, do you have "hip fluidity"?

No. But I can fill small holes.

[honz]

Slim, do you have "hip fluidity"?

Sources say his significant other "pleads the 5th".

[VonDoom]

Browns have Texans first and second rounders next year, hahahaha

[LawDog]

No. But I can fill small holes.

Mind the gap Slim.

[DenBronx]

Thank GOD Deshaun Watson got picked before us!!!

[MOtorboat]

Ok.

What's wrong with Johnathan Allen?

[VonDoom]

Ok.

What's wrong with Johnathan Allen?

Medicals? That's all I can think of

[Hawgdriver]

Browns have Texans first and second rounders next year, hahahaha

My crush on the browns analytic dep't. just got steamier. Now if they could just win some games lol.

[FanInAZ]

He's much better falling to 12th then being picked earlier by 1 of the dumpster fires :nod:

[DenBronx]

What about T.J. Watt?

[Hawgdriver]

Ok.

What's wrong with Johnathan Allen?

Nothing bro. These teams are being dumb in a FOMO world.

[LTC Pain]

Ok.

What's wrong with Johnathan Allen?

Several pundits had him mocked in the top 5???

[MOtorboat]

Several pundits had him mocked in the top 5???

Several? All?

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Houston just got a good football player.

[VonDoom]

What about T.J. Watt?

What about him?

[DenBronx]

What about T.J. Watt?

What about him?

If an OT high on our board is gone then why not.

[slim]

What about him?

He has a nice bubble and can fill holes.

[LTC Pain]

There goes Reddick to Arizona. The guy I wanted for the Broncos at #20 ��

[Ziggy]

This draft is falling nicely for the Broncos. Still there:

OJ Howard
Rueben Foster
Jonathan Allen

[dogfish]

mother****er cardinals!

[FanInAZ]

A Cards' fan just walk out the restaurant saying that Reddick was a terrible pick.

[Hawgdriver]

Still available:

Barnett
Foster
Allen
Hooker
Howard

plz plz plz be one of these to the Broncos at 20.

[Simple Jaded]

Now that I hear him talk I'm bummed Denver didn't get Reddick.

[Cugel]

Medicals? That's all I can think of

Chronic shoulder problems. He had a torn labrum, and then reinjured it in 2016. Well, so what? The dude can still play, and they have shoulder surgery techniques that can fix that stuff. He's going to be a player in the NFL for some team that isn't stupid enough to pass on him.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Still available:

Barnett
Foster
Allen
Hooker
Howard

plz plz plz be one of these to the Broncos at 20.

Yes

[DT88TheGreat]

Ok.

What's wrong with Johnathan Allen?

Nothing it's just a wacky draft, alot of reaching, alot of unexpected picks, alot of panic type trade ups. The Broncos are going to definitely get a great player at 20 now as long as e don't blow it somehow. Allen, foster, Robinson,njoku all still on the board. And oj Howard

[Simple Jaded]

A Cards' fan just walk out the restaurant saying that Reddick was a terrible pick.

Go chase him down and body slam him.

[DT88TheGreat]

Trade up for what! Broncos in great shape. I love it, get me cam Robinson baby if foster and hiward are gone!.

[Cugel]

Still available:

Barnett
Foster
Allen
Hooker
Howard

plz plz plz be one of these to the Broncos at 20.

If any of these guys is there and the Broncos take Bolles, I might throw up in my mouth a little.

Derrick Barnett - a run stuffing DE who broke Reggie White's records in college? That would be good.

Reuben Foster? Serious impact player who would solidify the middle of the Broncos LB corps for years to come. With either of these guys the defense is right back to 2015 levels and we could seriously hope to get a SB.

EDIT: Barnett just went at #14. Boo!

[ShaneFalco]

Trade up for what! Broncos in great shape. I love it, get me cam Robinson baby if foster and hiward are gone!.

nobody needs another shity guard

[VonDoom]

If Elway like bed someone, this would be the time to start calling

[FanInAZ]

Go chase him down and body slam him.

I'm not going to leave my laptop unattended to do that.

[Cugel]

Trade up for what! Broncos in great shape. I love it, get me cam Robinson baby if foster and hiward are gone!.

Why do they need a G? They already have Max Garcia and just acquired a G in FA. And Robinson is a G in the NFL.

[LTC Pain]

Now that I hear him talk I'm bummed Denver didn't get Reddick.

3 weeks ago Reddick was projected as a late 1st round pick!

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

Indy, please take Robinson

[DT88TheGreat]

Cam Robinson is a LT and will be a good one. He's better than the other two imo.

[Hawgdriver]

If Elway like bed someone, this would be the time to start calling

No idea what this means, but I agree 100%.

[tomjonesrocks]

I give Denver's draft a C-.

[ShaneFalco]

Mixon is going to be punching every broncos cheerleader in sight.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

I give Denver's draft a C-.

What are you drinking ?

[VonDoom]

No idea what this means, but I agree 100%.

Damn it, auto correct. I meant if he loves someone still on the board

[Simple Jaded]

nobody needs another shity guard

Oh the butthurt is palpable.

[Al Wilson 4 Mayor]

What are you drinking ?

Not because of your post, but I'm assuming you're having a nice craft beer.

[Simple Jaded]

Damn it, auto correct. I meant if he loves someone still on the board

Duck you autocorrect, I'm suck of your shirt!

[DenBronx]

Damn app keeps freezing.

[Cugel]

Dalvin Cook is still on the board. A potential top 10 pick, but fumble problems and off-field issues. Injury concerns. These are big concerns. But, on the field? He has been compared to Edgerrin James.



Overview

Florida State has had a slew of talented running backs over the past 30 years, but Cook was the first to break the 1,000-yard barrier in his first season with the team. The next two seasons have only gotten better, ranking in the top 10 by breaking 1,600 yards (1,691 in 2015 ranked sixth in the FBS, 1,765 in 2016 ranked fifth), scoring 19 times as a rusher, and earning first-team All-ACC accolades each year. The speedy and shifty back was also named 2016 first-team All-American by the Associated Press and Walter Camp Foundation, among others. NFL teams will be interested in his medical checks, though, because of the hamstring issues he had throughout the 2015 season and the three shoulder surgeries he's had since high school. Cook tore his rotator cuff in high school, then tore the front part of his labrum in 2014, and the back part of the labrum in 2016. He's also had run-ins with the law, starting in high school (robbery in 2009, charges dropped; firing and possessing a weapon on school property in 2010, charges drooped) and then again in 2015, where he was charged with misdemeanor battery outside a bar (found not guilty).
Analysis
Strengths Uses choppy feet and compact stride length downhill. Keeps feet under him and is able to make lateral cuts at a moment's notice. Flourished in zone, gap and power schemes at FSU. At his best running wide while setting up lead blockers. Slows flowing safeties and linebackers with hesitation steps and glances back inside. Has run-away gear around the corner he keeps tucked away for special occasions. Darting style allows him to escape defenders who show gap commitment too soon. Plus vision. Quick to flow from first to second read on outside zone plays. Greedy redzone runner with ability to cash those checks. The brighter the lights, the bigger his game. Comfortable in both one-back and two-back groupings. Rare ability to cut it all the way back across the grain. Changes direction with degree of subtlety on second level without gearing down. Not much of a dancer. Tends to get hit it up the field. Feet in constant state of motion. Despite drops, can be dangerous out of backfield.
