I’m not entirely convinced yet they don’t see Ebner more as that. Most of his draft profile reads like he’s a better receiver than runner anyway. 

His running mate at Baylor was better RB and they passed on him.

That's because they didn't want a RB...Monty & Herbert are there for that...Ebner is a weapon out of the backfield...basically a poor man's James Cook at Georgia who was behind Zamir White but had a very defined role...Ebner is there so that when a team is in base and has a SLB on the field he can be split out wide and run a traditional receiver round to stress the coverage and create a match up problem.

That was my point.  He is in vain of ST + WR/RB hybrid.  Like Velus. 

Other guy is more of the bell cow Ala Monty.
