Is this someone who will compete immediately?

He would definitely push the competition and nice to have if an injury. I think he could play pretty early on but obviously has to learn the offense. I think physically he's ready.

My take...

Good size and a strong runner so he can run between the tackles and pick-up yards after contact but he also has the speed to get to the perimeter and break a long run in the open field. The one negative I've seen is that he tends to run a little upright at times.

Not trying to be a smart Alec , but they really don't show pass blocking in the highlights. As a ball carrier, he is super quick, has some power and can run in between the tackles, shows good instincts, has some speed (but nowhere near a Feaster). So the ability seems to be there, but it really is all about his ability to pick up the system and develop as a pass protector. Most rb's just can't be complete players early and we have a really good core of 3 guys that will give us options next year.

You have got to be kidding. Really? Did you see Zachary? Kid was 6'0" and 185... Ettienne is advertised as 5'11" and 213... Apples and oranges.

I haven't even looked at the measurables but if you watch the film, seems a little upright like the aforementioned

Talent close to Feaster. I like him I think he plays as a freshman. Teach him how to pass block and he'll get some touches. I think he's a sleeper that will surprise many if he commits to us.

Almost 3000 rushing yards his senior year.
I'll take that.
