Rex Burkhead Pro Value

Anyone have any thoughts on Burkhead's potential at the next level? I hate the Jacob Hester comparisons. Just because the dude is white people say he's a fullback or another white RB.

I think he is one of the most versatile players in the country and has a ton of value. Not the fastest, but is actually not a slow guy at all. You can't run for Nebraska and not have some talent, IMO.

Thoughts?

I'm bumping the previous thread you started about Burkhead.

Burkhead has an NFL skillset and how much playing time he gets in the pros depends on who drafts him and if the starter ahead of him is hurt.

Rex has been banged up this year, I think Burkhead has the Potential to be a Good RB for a long time in the NFL. He will never be Elite but should have a long Career as a Second RB for a Team.

I like your capitalization style.

On a slightly unrelated topic i wouldn't mind seeing him as a change of pace back to Marshawn Lynch. Third round seems about right.
