      • 136 carries last season: Not a lot compared to other backs.
        • Bijan Robinson 257 carries, Blake Corum 248 carries
      • Doubtful he can be focal point of an NFL offense.
      • Can likely excel in a split backfield, but won’t be a 20+ carry, every down type of back

      • Positional value of RBs is decreasing in today’s NFL.
      • Last four drafts: 4 RBs in first round.
