I got the sense Hasty might need to clean up his footwork a little in the backfield, but that's ticky-tacky on my part. I loved his play overall and his burst in particular. The potential is obvious.
Indeed. He lacks the long speed, but his initial burst is fantastic. When he finds the opening, he hits it with tremendous quickness and explodes through with that crucial low center of gravity and forward lean that dj mentioned. Those qualities are so valuable and help you break tackles and get more yards than the play is blocked for, often times.
He may not be able to take it 80 yards without being caught from behind, but he can definitely do some damage with the ball in his hands.
