Watch this tape and tell me if you still think taking a flyer on this guy in the last round was a mistake.
Granted, the list of oft-injured college RBs who go on to have all pro NFL careers is a short one. But for a 7th, for a guy with this obvious talent, it was worth it.
He can catch out of the backfield, has great vision and dynamite open field moves & speed. Not really a twixt-the-tackles runner, but there is an important, pre-defined role for guys like him in today's NFL

What i see in this vid is great balance, vision with good hands out of the backfield. I remember watching this guy and thinking he could be another great one at Oklahoma. I love how he lets his blocks set up and he just hits holes really fast. Follows his blockers extremely well. Traveon is a great talent and i like him a bit more but this guy is one hell of a RB too when he is healthy.
Damn, what a competition at RB!
