Thoughts? 2,578 yards and 41 TDs is a lot, no matter what way you look at it

They took in West's position drills, but he elected not to do any tests and stood on his combine numbers. The 5-foot-9, 225-pounder ran an impressive 4.54 second 40-yard dash time in Indy. He's powerful, fast and fluid, which was apparent as he slapped down 2,578 yards and 41 touchdowns last season. West didn't have many chances to show his hands and route running ability at Towson, but evaluators reportedly walked away impressed with both areas. "The kid has great hands -- I tell all the teams that," Towson coach Rob Ambrose said. "He can definitely catch the ball out of the backfield."

Trending upwards in my books.

I especially like the teams that have talked to him - 49ers and Ravens. Both have deployed a workhorse in the past and have muddled RB situations going forward.

Doug Martin 2.0 without the buzz and 1st round pedigree.

I think him going to the 49ers in the middle rounds would only muddle the situation even more. He wouldn't step in as the top RB, and likely not even the #2.

I really like everything I've seen of him. His back story impresses me more. I could see Ravens taking him. His combine results were solid. Anyone get RSP ? Curious where Waldman has him ranked

He's ranked 13th there. Says he likes his ceiling, but sees him as only a situational runner to start his career as he continues to improve.

I've got him as RB11 in the ORANGE Report. Scary stat is he had over 400 touches last season. That adds so much wear and tear.
