86766, acceleration vs. long speed.

he can gear up to top speed quickly -- it's just that his top speed isn't as good as other players. Barry Sanders principle.

I don't like him between the tackles. he dances a lot because college defenders don't close cutback lanes as fast as in the NFL. and his acceleration gets him through the second level (beating the angles of slower linebackers) more than his strength.
