Good initial burst, excellent balance through contact and enough speed to hit the homer in. Will be an immediate contributor in the passing game with natural hands, doesn’t lose anything transitioning from runner to receiver. Teams will be able to line him up in a variety spots. Will stick his nose in as a pass protector, where he is quick to recognize free blitzers.

“Doesn’t have the elite speed of other top backs, and doesn’t overpower defenders through contact. His workload was kept in check thanks to depth in Georgia’s backfield, and there are questions about what he can handle at the next level. He never had 200 carries in a single season.

thanks. And i just saw that Swift was brought up in the other thread, so I apologize for Qing.
Note: Kamara has never carried more than 194 times in a season in the NFL. his average has been about 170 (something like that) carries/season.
Also, ESPN had Swift going as the first RB to be taken in the draft. Again, I don't necessarily have the utmost faith in ESPN foretelling, but there it is.
