Catching the ball out of the backfield will certainly move

him up NFL draft boards. But being a good blocker will help him secure a place on a team. Just ask Wayne Gallman. He has ALREADY banked over 1.2 million from the Giants, and is certainly just a backup to Saquon Barkley. Now, ETN has MUCH more ability than Wayne, but it shows just how important these "secondary" abilities in a running back are to pro teams. Clemson has had many backs with more sheer running ability than Gallman, but not many made pro teams.

Wayne Gallman is a very tough hard nose back that can block without fear, and he can get a couple needed yards with the strength of his legs that keep him upright, and he keeps his feet moving for those hard to get yards after he had been corralled. I always thought that Wayne was a good RB while at Clemson, but I wasn't sure if he had a career in the NFL bc it usually takes a special back like a Todd Gurley to have NFL staying power!!! Man, I sure wish we could have landed Gurley for our offense, and hopefully Demarkcus Bowmanl will have that kind of a career with us at Clemson, and stay healthy every minute of everyday that he is at Clemson!!! Go Gallman, and stand up and be counted in the NFL!!!
