It is hard to discuss this type of stuff without insulting people but let's just say he isn't in any real scouts top 5 right now.
top 5 for what? and what scouts?
btw, Lindy's has him as their #5 RB, and that was before the Combine

Yes, people knew he was fast. Now fans know he is fast so they are saying stupid things about the guy. Justin Vargas is really fast too. Really fast just doesn't mean much at running back.
He is also versatile if by that you mean he is a slot back type. He just isn't a real running back. He is a track star.
well, that was pretty stupid
you have evidence to back up your opinion? and no, I don't care how much of a draftnik you claim to be, that doesn't mean much, I want to see some links and knocks on the guy that says he isn't a running back
no wonder there is so much ignorance about the guy

Can he stay healthy? Can he block in the NFL? Can he show patience and vision? Can he break tackles in the NFL? Speed doesn't help in any of those areas and thats why measurables almost never make a good running back.
he benches 350, drives his legs, and retains good balance, that's tackle-breaking qualities right there, he showed vision at ECU, he stayed healthy when he carried his Senior workload, and he blocked much better as a Senior too, even though he needs to continue to improve and keep the same mindset
all these questions can be asked of any back in this draft, since none have yet to do it
