Thread for discussion of 2019 draft class RBs
Mid-round prospect
Yep. I remember when Mike Tyson bit a piece of his ear off. It was crazy!Anyone watch Holyfield?
With his combination of balance, explosiveness, catching ability, and vision I really think Gaskin will become the next great RB that no one talked about and then suddenly explodes onto the scene, like Hunt did last year.
Totally forgot about him. Hes really underrated. Been productive ever since he stepped foot at A&MI like travyon williams.. thats been my guy. Kinda small at 5”9 but dude is a beast for texas a&m
Y’all sleepin on him. He’s especislly strong in a zone read, he carries the play fake extremely well and at the same time lead blocks for the option like a legit FB. Brilliant blitz pickups as seen here vs one of the better defensive fronts in the country. Intuitive in the dump off game making himself available when the qb is in trouble and has a knack for catching the dumpoff with a head of steam and getting downfield fast. Instinctive and quick and compact hurdles for when he’s bouncing out and a db closes in and goes for the legs.
This kid is a sleeper and I can’t believe he’s getting no attention
I see a much more decisive runner between the tackles than buck, and he works the read option very well with blocks and chemistry on the handoffI see a lot of Buck in his game. Hes very physical and does a lot well but i didnt see him break any tackles really. There were a couple times where he hesitated to hit the hole but i do like some of what i see. Still dont see him as anything more than a day 3 pick and tbh id like to have someone that can add more dynamic and compliment Gus, and Dixons running style. Not sure he fits that bill
I agree with that. His UCLA game shows his vision i just dont see him breaking many tackles. Thats my one gripe with him.I see a much more decisive runner between the tackles than buck, and he works the read option very well with blocks and chemistry on the handoff
