If his ACL was 100% healed he would be the top RB in the draft.

That is definitely homer talk. His acl injury will definitely impact his draft status, but he wasn't going to be the first running back drafted if he was completely healthy. Healthy, he is probably a 3rd rounder. Now he is 4th or 5th.

Arguably top RB in draft…if medicals check out good round 2/3 target. Needs to run in the 4.4s for me to be on board.

Not homer talk. I don't judge talent by uniform. It was pretty much a consensus he was the best RB in the draft.

Unless he's around in the 6th round he won't be in Dallas. Brooks is a really good RB tho.

Good suddenness and runs with good balance - I'm not sure he has the long speed to really be a difference maker in the NFL. Solid all around but doesn't do much of anything that's special.

What's your thoughts on Marshawn Lloyd? I think he's the best rb in the class

I like him a lot. He's the type of runner who is always going to get everything that's there because he sees the field so well. Reminds me a little bit of Zeke the way he can be patient to let holes open and blocks develop and then plants and goes. 3:20 and 4:14 are two great runs that translate well to the NFL, I think.

Repeating myself a little bit here, but I wonder about his speed at the NFL level. It wouldn't shock me if he was the best RB out of this class when all is said and done.

yea I dont see breakaway speed which is why he'll prob be there for our 2nd rounder.

You absolutely judge talent by uniform.

Who the hell do you think you’re fooling?
The fact that I literally talk about players on other teams on a consistent basis.
Who are those 10 Longhorns I said were sure fire first rounders?
