Pros: He can run over defenders with authority, and he has the footwork and balance to juke around them. He isnt a speedy back, but if he gets to the corner he can make big plays.
Cons: He has had a problem staying healthy. Not a lot of major injuries, but quite a few nagging ones that would keep him out a game or two at a time. Sometimes he tries to dance around defenders too much when he needs to lower his shoulder and use his size to get the tough yards.
Overall: He isnt a guy who can take over an offense by himself, but if he is put in the right system he could be a great change-of-pace back on third downs and goal line carries
