| Scouting Report | Potential |
| As long as he keeps working at it, he should become a good straight ahead runner. His outside running game will become a positive part of the overall package. Breakaway speed will never top his list of assets, but it won't be terrible either. His blocking skills will contribute positively to his overall game. |
