He looks identical to a smaller version Darren McFadden , both run in a straight up manner.

I was about to say McFadden until I opened the thread and you had already stolen my glory. Right on.

Lyn-J has a unique " almost seated " appearance when viewed from the side . His running style isn't one that is easily comparable .

He has a funky stride. He's deceptively shifty and accelerates fast. He's fum to watch

top end speed is not his strength...vision and shiftiness are, however.

Yeah he’s def not as fast as ETN like some people said but his vision is second to none and he doesn’t go down first contact. EVER

Dickerson ran very straight up but was much larger at 6'3" 210.

I may get laughed at for this but when I see him in uniform, and the way his feet move he really reminds me of DJ Howard, just a lot better.

I don't totally get McFadden, Allen, or Dickerson

In Lyn-J's running style. I can see the comparison for "upright runners", but I don't think any of the three are that close. All 3 of those guys are a good bit taller (6'2"-6'3") and heavier. Lyn-J is right at 5'10". And all of those guys have a little bit more lean to their running style, especially Dickerson and McFadden.
Lyn-J runs so upright that it looks like he is leaning backwards doing high-knees. Just look at his long runs against Wake. It looks like he is high-stepping the entire way to the end zone.
I've not seen a runner that I would directly compare to Dixon.
