Dynasty Summary: He knows how to do his job and get to the promised land. We asked if Dixon is going to able to transition to the NFL after spending a lot of time in college, both in the endzone, but also getting crushed behind the line. I want to say 100% yes he will, but I don’t think he is destined for an immediate role as a three down back. He can be a very scary third down guy who can spell a lead back for a series or two, but he isn’t going to be a workhorse out of the gate. There is potential for him to be a great one-two punch with a better home run hitter back to compliment his six tough yard slash mentality. I see a lot of CJ Spiller without the top end speed but he has the ability to make things out of nothing. He will need to learn what having a NFL caliber line will be like and how sometimes you need to follow the play and not bounce it around. Easily a third or fourth round back, if he goes to the right team, in the age of PPR he can be a great asset for owners. He is fun to watch though and hopefully some team will see his ability and get blown away as well.

Rotoworld: 27. Where He Wins: Has three down running back ability. Will maximize the yards blocked for him and then create on his own with strength or elusiveness. Also a good receiver out of the backfield, displaying sideline awareness and body control to adjust to difficult catches.

Mark Dulgerian: Dixon is a perfect fit in Marc Trestman's offense. He is the best pass catching back in this class and possesses the toughness and instincts to pick up yards between the tackles. He should be an instant-impact player in this offense. --
