Link: TJ Yeldon Getting Comparisons to McFadden and DeAngelo Williams from NFL Scouts

I think Yeldon is like a poor man's Marcus Allen. The main difference being that I think Allen had better top end speed. Yeldon has great burst bur rarely beats the safety to the end zone in a flat footrace. Keep in mind that Allen was one of the best to ever play the game so any comparison to him is a big complement and the way runners are used in the NFL today breakaway speed isn't as critical as burst to the hole.
The way our program works it's best when our top back leaves in three because we want our backs to be highly motivated and not so much worried about getting hurt and dropping draft status. Plus we need to make space so that we continue to get top recruits. Yeldon will not be drafted in the first, we won't be seeing that too much from now on. Probably more like 2nd to 3rd round. perhaps 4th if they grade out a few guys in front of him.

Did he get hurt? He didn't play at all in the second half. I'm sure the answer is somewhere in the second half game thread, but I'm so lazy.
OK, in his presser, CNS, after talking about Robinson, hoping he'd be OK with two weeks (I doubt it), he said that there were several ankles and foot injuries, but he thought they were all minor. I hope he was including TJ in there. He also said that LB practiced at LT and he was the first sub but that Grant Hill could play there or they could switch Shepard over. That I doubt, since AS is not 100%. Also, he mentioned that #22 tweaked his hamstring in pregame warmup...
He reminds me of Sherman Williams with his quick feet.
Might be going back a little too far for some of y'all.

It's the same nagging ankle injury as earlier this year. It didn't agree with the condition of the turf either.
