Sankey, like Brown, had a monstrous two seasons before entering the draft.
Both are workhorses and could catch out of the backfield.
Very, very similar size, speed, and agility.
Like Brown, Sankey wasn't overly shifty on the field, but he could do enough if given the blocking.
While Sankey did ok in a complementary role as a rookie (702 yards from scrim) in 2014, he fell behind Antonio Andrews his sophomore season. Then in 2016 the Titans drafted Derrick Henry and the rest is history.
I am optimistic Chase Brown will have a better career in the NFL than Sankey did, but I thought Sankey would have done more too, so we'll see.
Bishop Sankey is a good Comp. It looks like he was a 2nd round pick, so the Bengals have less invested in Chase with a 5th rounder.
Every individual player is ultimately different and unique, so we will get to see what Chase has soon enough.
