That's too short. ~ E. Smith

don'r even try it

Abdullah has a leaner-than-ideal upper and lower body build. Ball security has been an issue. Clearly limited as a blocker and lack of length, size and strength are exposed when attempting to sustain or do much to stop blitzers. Has difficulty recognizing where pressure is coming from and gets uprooted at the point of attack when he squares up with the rusher.


Compares to: Ahmad Bradshaw, Colts -- Coming out of Marshall, Bradshaw was measured at 5-10, 192 pounds and put on close to 20 pounds to become much more of a pile mover as a pro. Both won in college through superb vision, decisiveness, balance, effort and quickness. Abdullah has room on his frame to pack on 5-8 pounds comfortably and develop into a very similarly used player as Bradshaw has been throughout his career.

Man, I remember watching a very young TJ Yeldon play at 'bama and thinking this kid will be a star.... now he's
projected as a 3rd tier rookie RB prospect.... love to see him in Dallas.
