Smart money says he'll snag it next season. That is, if he stays healthy and doesn't get busted-up.

He's a natural too. Watch how his steady his upper body is when he's running. There is almost no up and down movement, meaning very little wasted energy.

Watch an Olympic sprinter. Same thing, usually. Looked to me that he outruns most guys because he hits his top gear around when they do, but can sustain the speed for 10 or 15 more yards. So, buh-bye tackler.

Also i saw some really shifty moves that seems based on great vision. Saw where people were, saw which way a defender was leaning, feinted that way, then when he cut the other, there was no chance for the linebacker or safety to recover.

I was started to think he was west coast, "nobody seems him" hype at Heismann time. I readily admit i was wrong.
