Comparing a player’s athletic traits to past and current NFL players
from DLF
DLF: Foreman only tested in the bench press during the combine, leaving us just his height and weight to make comparisons too. Without knowing his exact numbers, it appears he falls into the Carlos Hyde, Jordan Howard and Jeremy Hill archetype.
Yahoo Sports: 7. D’Onta Foreman, Texas — 6-0, 230 — Big and fast, maybe faster than we realized, and could be great complementary runner
NFL Analysis: Foreman toted the rock 20-plus times in 10 of 11 games last year for the Longhorns, and crossed the 100-yard mark in every single game. He possesses nimble feet and excellent balance for a bigger back, but could stand to play with more physicality given his size. Too often he'll run out of bounds pre-contact instead of fighting for more yards. His balance and size allow him to rip through arm tackles with ease, but ball security is a concern as he had seven fumbles (six lost) in 2016 alone. Foreman is a short yardage stud and rarely gets taken down behind the line of scrimmage. His fantasy value will ultimately be determined by his landing spot, though, as pass-protection issues could keep him on the bench early in his career.
DRAFT ANALYSIS: "For a big man, he ran awfully fast. When you get a kid like this -- well-spoken, caring, works hard -- you root for him." -- Mike Mayock
