"While he didn’t give up a sack and very few pressures in pass pro, he’s fairly untested in a Texas offensive system that limited how often he actually had to engage with defenders."
Untested and bad are different.
True enough, nice post Au165. Still is a concern, that and catching the ball out of the backfield as he wasn't asked to.
Doesn't mean he couldn't but is something to observe when picking a RB.

One of his weaknesses is he needs to be more physical given his size. Perine is a bowling ball, but "pedestrian" speed. He's a solid back though.
I'd say my favorite RBs in the 3-4 range are Hunt, Perine, then McNichols. All solid, but likely not spectacular.
I wouldn't be opposed to a RB in the second round, but I think the Bengals can wait on a RB. This is a good RB draft class and a RB won't be the focal of the Bengals' offense. That goes to AJ Green and Tyler Eifert.
Foreman can work on all these things. Seems like Hill still doesn't get it and looks even more slim than last year.
He is trying to be LeVeon Bell instead of himself when he was good.
Who is this Hunt guy? Know nothing about him. I like the two backs out of Utah in the mid rounds. Joe Williams the Ute
and Jamaal Williams the Cougar. Both of these guys impressed me last year, especially Joe who ran with major burst,
balance and conviction late last year.
