I think this guy could be a good pickup if he came for a late round pick. He was impressive during his rookie season, but he must've had some issues with his situation in Philly. Thoughts?

I don't know much about him. Seems like a smash-mouth back, ie TJ Duckett, etc. If he fell off so much something happened, so I don't know about that. Could be a locker room cancer.

Actually that couldn't be further from the truth. His game is finesse.
