NFL - Bulldog runner in every sense of the word with his stout frame and aggressive running style but possessing the suddenness to elude tacklers as blow past linebackers. Holyfield is a frenetic back with palpable energy that works in his favor, but also causes diminished patience and impulsive run tracks at times. In an apples to apples comparison with highly-regarded running mate D'Andre Swift, Holyfield's 2018 season holds up. His size, quickness and ability to add yards to the run could make him a Day 2 pick and quality starter in time.
Scouting director for AFC team - "There is love on these scouting streets for him and then you have people who see him as a good backup."

Draft Sharks - If Holyfield lands in a good spot either late in the NFL Draft or as a free agent, then you can feel free to take a late rookie-draft shot on him. But he doesn’t look likely to help your fantasy football team at any point.

CBS - Holyfield shows powerful leg drive to move pile forward as well as a quick jump cut in backfield to create space. And while he flashes the ability to get around edge, NFL teams will have a hard time overlooking his 4.78 40 at the combine. Still, when he's patient, can be an effective between-the-tackles runner. Holyfield is undersized as a blocker but when he squares up can do good job in pass protection. Likely a Day 3 pick because of his measurables

DLF - Since February, Holyfield has seen his ADP drop from 129.50 down to 210 (as of April 2019). Most of this decrease is due to his poor Combine and pro day performances, while fantasy Twitter has certainly added on to his decline. I would expect his ADP to climb back up after the NFL Draft if he lands in a desirable spot.
