The signing of mark Ingram and assumption that justice hill will be good has left us ignoring the rb position...
But there is a guy in this draft who shouldn’t be ignored unless your team is the giants or panthers(can’t think of any other team with a young, cornerstone franchise back with no major red flags).
D’Andre Swift. He’s something special, he’s a short stocky musclehead and runs like one, he’s built for 25 carries a game, but he regularly turns defenders into memes in the open field, somehow he is always able to fully dedicate himself one way and then violently cut the opposite way making tacklers whiff terribly. It takes him 2 steps to get a really nice speed going, he’s decently fast but defenders struggle to close in on him even in tight spots because he’s always accelerating downhill, even when he’s jitterbugging around he doesn’t seem to be slowing down. QUICK on reads in the backfield, he sees his lane, but also sees other lanes, and he will adjust very quickly if needed and change to a lane that may have opened late, and he does it with a quick and violent jab and cutback, as he does with all his cuts.
This guy has elite back written all over him, he could run any system, he’s got the one cut ability to smash a stretch scheme by challenging the edge hard consistently and always forcing overpursuit, and a violent sudden cutback to take advantage. He’s got the vision and acceleration for a man scheme or inside zone, he’s got the power and downhill burst and ability to make that one last defender downfield miss in a power concept.
