He's a guy that, imo, needs space to operate. He doesn't create much on his own.
Don't get me wrong, i think he'd be a good addition to any team and i'd love to have him. I also think the Chiefs can take any RB and make him a star, so there's that.
I just dont think he's going in the 1st round.
He's going to be another "oh i can't believe he's still on the board" day 2 pick.
He's not a bad player, i just don't think he's feature RB worth spending a 1st on.

Pretty sure most of us do that...
He’s definitely not a physical runner by any means, but he does have good contact balance and that’s enough for me. I love his agility and quick-cut ability. The guy sticks his foot in the ground and cuts on a dime. Playing in an offense like ours that can take full advantage of his upside as a receiver and get him in space is what also makes him intriguing. I don’t think he’s an All-Pro caliber player, but he would be a top 5-8 RB in this offense. When you factor in positional value, I still think he’s a borderline top 32 player and would be a solid pick at 32.
