I think he'll be good on 3rd downs the way he fights for every yard, keeps the legs moving, sees the narrow openings, and maneuvers through them any way possible. Seems like he was making a little from nothing a lot on his video. BYU's blocking didn't look good. This is primarily what I thought the Packers' offense needed, although he wouldn't be the #1 back because he doesn't look like he'd be great out of shotgun, shooting gaps quickly. We have Montgomery and the other guy for that.
 
If he is half the back of the man he's trying to be, Walter Payton, the packers have done well.
