owes Mullen a LOT. I really ahve doubts about him making he NFL, but I would have put him in teh "no chance" category before this year. I think he makes a team now.

I think he's probably a 2nd round pick. He's a between the tackles runner... you dont have to have blazing speed for that.

the 3rd or 4th best back in the SEC...and I'd still take Scott over him if I had to draft a RB...

He is doing a great job- but I still think Ducre could do about as well with the same amount of carries

Ingram, McCluster, Scott, and maybe even Tate and Smith from UPig over him...I think Ducre deserves more touches...thats my opinion...we'll see at draft time what the experts think in April

those names have been marketed much more than AD, and AD played under a complete clown for 3 years

if he can run somewhere around 4.5 at 235 then he will make a lot of money. If he runs a 4.6 or worse then he will be a late round pick. He seems to be able to reach the edge though and he has pretty good game speed. I think he's at least as good as Pierre Thomas or LenDale White.

He weighs, prolly 235 -240 now. Is he faster now? I honestly don't know. This year he looks fitter, leaner, faster, but who knows for sure.

Also, you can add 2/10ths to every high school time. Theya re rarely correct/ Tht would put him at 4.8.

I think he is 4.7. And if he is, he is goint o have a hard time in the NFL.

nobody should ever pay attention to anything this idiot says. what a 17'ing moron.

If nothing else, he's proven that he will NEVER admit when he's wrong.

If Cam Newton blows the world away next year, I will not be able to WAIT to get on here and say how wrong I was and wear a shiteating grin the whole time I'm doing it.

What a douche.

has said something to the effect of "we'll be seeing this kid on sundays". i dunno, maybe they are going to eat dinner at his house or something, but that's not how I'm taking it. I've seen him listed in the top 5 backs in this year's draft on some lists, so let's see how it plays out. RBs are not the priority they once were with the 2-RB system in the NFL so the draft position may be lower than it would've been in years past, but on the flip side more backs are being taken. I say he's 2nd - 4th round. Regardless, I expect him to see significant action within two seasons.

what his vertical is. I've never seen anyone who can jump over so many tacklers and still get back on his feet and keep going. AD is impressive because he can do so many things at his size. He can catch the ball out of the backfield, which is a huge plus, he can run between the tackles, and he is very physical. His 40 time may not be all that great, but the fact that he can run over people makes up for that at least a little bit, and he can get chunks of yardage in the open field. He's also good in short yardage situations.

I don't know where he will be drafted, but I definately think that he is an NFL player for sure.

shot of not getting hurt. He is faster and has better hands. Dixon better lose that stutter step completely or he will end up being a wall mount on some defensive tackles game room wall.

Ingram, check
McCluster - no way. He's a 3rd down back to be used the way the Falcons used Norwood
Scott - meh
Tate - hell yes
Smith - meh

that makes Dixon a NFL prospect. They really aren't looking for those small fast guys because they just don't last in the NFL. You hear it all the time on Sunday that they need those "every down backs" who can take a pounding. I think Dixon will be drafted and higher than most people expect. McCluster gets the hype and he is a great college player but he can't be a NFL running back. He would get killed.

...is his tendency to dance when the hole is tight. In the Not For Long league, you've got to pound it up in there and get a few when there isn't any. I don't know if he will do that.

Dixon has looked great this year. But in games like the UF game when the holes aren't as big, he dances like he's danced the last 3 years.

But seriously, Dixon will be good NFL back. I think Ducre also has a lot of potential as well.

Dixon is great after contact and has improved as this season has progressed, the two moves he made to the outside last night, one for touchdown, will get attention from the pros but his key ability is to catch the short pass which would be as asset for any pro team.

I'm not projecting a number one pick here or anything, just saying he will get a shot. He does seem to be doing a little better this year of hitting the hole and taking what he has but you can see the desire to dance is still there.

Where did you get that idea? Ducre himself has said before that Boobie is faster.

Boobie is plenty fast. The only folks who have ever run him down from behind are corners. And that has been well down the field. If someone has an angle, then that's a different story.

Mel Kiper has Dixon in his top 5 senior RB's.

I think Hardesty is the best, he's the total package of size, speed, quickness, and physicality
