    It's a great story. He saw Youtube video highlights of Adrian Peterson 5 years ago and decided he wanted to play football in the NFL. He is smart and has a lot of natural talent, but is still a project. Of course, that is pretty much the case with 6th and 7th Round picks.

    If he makes the roster I'll definitely watch but he has a hard row to hoe. He may (or may not be) be a millisecond faster than the backs he's going to be facing now running straight downfield but knowing how to get separation from them is a whole different ball game. They'll be on him like paint.
