I don't know if that's what teams are "looking for", more so than guys that fit that mold having success in college.
Anyone with two eyes could see that Gurney, Elliott and Fournette were going Top 10 in the NFL because they were so successful in college (although Fournette's weight could be his downfall).
If teams were actually "looking for" that type of player, David Johnson wouldn't have lasted until the 3rd round and Bruce Arians wouldn't have waited until his Top Two backs on the depth chart were injured before playing Johnson.
