Alfred Morris pick 6.3

[CultBrennan59]

So I was looking through my draft magazines from last year, wondering what some of the negatives where on players who had big years (Casey hayward, janoris Jenkins, Ty Hilton, Doug Martin, Russell Wilson to name a few).

Then I looked in my profootballweekly draft magazine for our buddy Alfred Morris (to their credit they are the only draft magazine that did an analysis on him; the other magazines either listed his name under the best of the rest, or didn't list him at all).

First off the magazine didn't list him under running backs. He is a FB to them. And not even the best one--Brady Ewing of Wisconsin is "better than him".

But I got a kick out of his negatives:
"Lacks ideal bulk"
"Below average speed for a RB"
"Tight hipped and straightlinish"
"Limited foot quickness, elusiveness"
"Lacks lead blocking experience"

"In our eyes: a college running back, Morris lacks speed and agility to remain there in the pros. Is a physical, competitive inside runner whose aggression in pass protection, hard-nosed style and outstanding intangibles indicate he could make (a) successful conversion to fullback."
