He looks like a good short yardage back and could be useful near the goal line.

I'm hearing reports that he was the #1 RB on Grier's draft board.
Well he got his guy then.
What is his arm length?

Well never heard of him, but if the gm,s on here like him then i am ok with him too
Yeah you were right Taylor got him by 100 yards but the point still holds. You don’t have to be a high draft pick to be successful as a running back in the NFL. It happens quite a bit actually.He lead all rookies in rushing, except for that one year that Taylor lead all rookies in rushing

He scored a lot of touchdowns in his highlights and that's what we need is touchdowns, so I'm loving this pick.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure undrafted James Robinson ran a 4.65 or something close to it.
Over 1300 all purpose yards and 10 TDs in 2020.
Not comparing, just saying....

He clearly doesn't have much top end speed from his highlights, and not fluid looking either. I think Grier picked the worst back he could find just to troll us.

People think speed is the #1 RB trait rather than decision making and situational awareness. Good running backs make good plays by decision making, great running backs have that and speed. I am fine with the former with the 7th round pick.
