2020 Day 2 NFL Draft Thread (NO SPOILERS!)

Interesting excerpt on Dillon:

 

Dillon's combine results are almost identical to Henry's results from 2016.

Yeah well, who cares about combine results? It's the tape that matters.

True. And Dillon's tape is very, very good.

I'll admit that when I started watching Dillon, I expected to see another Andre Williams: a slow-footed bruiser who pounded out a few yards at a time in Boston College's lost-in-the-'70s offense. But Dillion is shockingly quick, with excellent vision and cutback ability. His receiving chops will need work after he caught just 21 passes in three seasons as a featured back, but Henry proved that a power back can still be a dangerous weapon in the right kind of offense.

This was my brief overview of him during my RB research

Quote

Has a long striding running style that makes him look quicker than he really is. Runs surprisingly well at that weight. If he shed some of the weight I think he could be even better. Makes decisive cuts with minimal waste in movement. Would be good in a two back committee. I think his size and long striding style may be his weakness in the NFL, with less time and space he will struggle to get up to speed quickly and do what he does best. Stuff him at the line and he won't do a whole lot.
