MSalmon Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I rewatched his Clemson game. Only 13 carries for 56 yards, but watch his speed to the outside and blocking against a team with serious DL talent. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2019-nfl-draft-qadree-ollison-talks-james-conner-comparisons-his-approach-to-being-an-nfl-running-back/amp/ Drew4719, Vandy, citsalp and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had me watching old clips of Michael Turner last night. With Mike Mularky being the run game coordinator, I could see him having some influence with this pick.

He’s got that same nutty burst that I never expect when you look at him physically. Can you imagine this kid’s potential in an NFL diet and training regime? He’s got wheels at 230. I hate the forty for rbs. Cole World 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazoo Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 He’s extremely talented and well rounded. He’s got a sneaky burst you can see when he hit a hole. With his level of intelligence, he’s going to be able to step right in and help us this year. I just knew we would find a back in this draft that could play at a high level and was big enough to take a lot of punishment, just in case Freeman or Ito went down, who both ended the year on IR, Cole World and BoomGoesTheDynamite 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long speed is great and all, but for our run blocking scheme burst is even more important. We need backs that can spot the hole and quickly burst through it to second level. And this guy is going to be brutal for DBs and smallish LBs to tackle at second level with a full head of steam We have added a long missing element of physicality to this offense. We got great big, strong, physical, nasty, mean finishing OL who will not get pushed around by any defense and a great big physical back to pound on them even more. Perfect complement to Free Ito.

falcons007 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 He can block too, line him up in H formation with Free on short yardage situations. He is a RB in FB body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurry_Up_And_Buy Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) Cue the old Stephen Jackson film ...That dude was a beast for 10 years in the league. If this young man has any of that type of stuff in him he'll be not only be a good pick up but also considered a draft steal. QO was a pretty good grab in a draft full of "PRODUCTIVE" late round backs to choose from. Edited April 29, 2019 by Hurry_Up_And_Buy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takeitdown Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Haven't watched much on him yet. How does he wiggle? Or how quick does he cut. I know that's not his game, but was curious. His 3 cone is really slow, but lots of times these guys haven't even trained for it. Does his quickness look pretty decent in real life?

I think you’ll enjoy those games. He’s not Freeman jitterbug style by any means. But he can make miss and very strong. Bull string in his running style. Seems to change speed very well, unlike Ho who hits everything one speed. You pointed out his burst earlier and that’s a great attribute. you never know, but I really like this back a lots gazoo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
