Dixon on ESPN??? I caught the tail end of him talking about Dixon. Todd said he would potentially go in the first 2 rounds........

He needs a good showing at the combine. If Dixon runs under a 4.6 he could have a shot at going in the 1st.

He ain't running under a 4.6 I would be willing to bet.

Very few RB's, especially those his size, get under a true 4.6 even using the NFL timing method of partial hand/partial electronic. If he gets in the 4.6's he will be good to go.

Losing weight and gaining quickness like he did made him a much better all around back. Also, playing in an offense where he had a chance to catch a few passes didn't hurt either.

Last year I would've said he'd probably make a team in the NFL and have a brief career as a back up. This year, I think he's got potential to be a high draft pick and be part of some team's 2 back rotation, since that's what most teams do these days.
