Pros: Patrick has a great burst to the line, he has a punishing style in between tackles and can break the outside run as well, he has the big play ability many teams want and is a descent pass catcher.
Cons: He isnt always the most patient runner, His God given speed sometimes causes him to hit the line before the line has opened the hole, needs more wiggle in the hips to avoid initial contact relying on his Strength to break the tackle inside. Not a polished runner but has great upside.
Overall: I look at him as a value pick in the 4th round to 5th round, he reminds me of a stronger Willie Parker, the roomate of Adrian Peterson Allen Patrick also is a person of great charecter and thus would be a great choice to add depth and imediate impact on special teams until he blossoms into the superstar he is able to become.
