Profiles are all over the place for this kid. Some say he was a 5 star recruit, others a 4. One said he ran a 4.6+ 40 the others say 4.5 and even some saying 4.46. One person mentions injuries the other says his lack of production wasnt injury related but circumstances...

Depending on whichever link you click on for his draft profile you are gonna get opinions all over the board. What's the most accurate profile?

That's similar to Danny Gray. I went to four different sites and each one had him at a different height ranging from 5'11 to 6'2.

one of these UDFA rbs are going to hit, they do this every year lol maybe its this dude

Have we traded him to Miami for a 5th yet?

Seems like a head case.

I am hoping he's matured. After all that happened at FSU, he stayed to finish his degree before transferring to play football. If he HAS gotten his stuff together, he could be an absolute steal. Some sources say he would've been a 2nd or third round pick if not for his history.

As for those trying to confirm measurable and recruit status, he was indeed a five star recruit.

Official pro day numbers were good.

Weighed in at 5-9 204

Ran 4.52 with a 38 1/2 inch vertical

23 reps on the bench

7.08 three cone, 4.4 shuttle times.

Obviously worth the risk. If he turns out to be a punk he gets cut and never heard from again. I love taking these kind of upside plays as UDFAs.

This guy is shifty as all hell and has a PLETHORA of moves. He always falls forward to gain extra yards. I want him on our practice one or even on our 53 over TDP

Looks explosive and agile as hell! I'm intrigued!

Does his running style remind anyone of Marcus Lattimore. Something about the way his legs "look long" after his cuts and his crazy-good balance just looks exactly like Lattimore to me.

Posting here because no one chimed in to my comments on other platforms, and I want to get another opinion. Not trying to party-crash this forum, necessarily lol.

That cut at 1:39 is a Lattimore cut. Tell me I'm wrong.

But getting his shot because our injuries
Then trade him to Miami/Houston for a 6th

Filthy cuts. Twitchy and loves contact. Not seeing the breakaway speed and I don't think he's a great pass catcher. Former 5-star and let me tell ya it takes a lot to get kicked out of FSU lol.

if Turner and Lynn gave their blessing, I'm cool with it.

As much as I like Jordan Mason, we can't replace TDP with another small back.

I concur

You're right about his running style. He also gets a ton of yards after contact and falls forward almost every single time. I like this guy a lot. TDP will probably get one more year. Hopefully this guy does not get snatched up off our practice squad

5 fumbles while playing against lower level competition is also a concern.
