    Compares To: MARION BARBER, III-Dallas...Hilliard is a load to bring down in one-on-one situations (54.9% of his non-touchdown runs the last two years, 130-of-299, required multiple defenders to bring him down). He has the forward body lean, leg drive and power to consistently get the tough yardage between the tackles. He is more quick than fast and has been quite as productive getting long yardage off draw plays. He is a capable receiver on controlled routes and has developed into a capable cut blocker. He has made strong recovery from an Achilles tendon injury, but because of a lack of blazing speed, he is better served as an inside runner than one who should be attacking the edges. Barber is a more polished route-runner and receiver, but when used on controlled routes, Hilliard has proven to be a capable safety valve.

    Ok

    When I first read the post I was like WT heck is he...

    Why would people state he will replace Regan.. Well we can say goodbye to another Cameron move. We need a blocking FB this is what I copied form the link above under analysis


    Tough lead blocker who can widen and sustain the rushing lanes...Very willing when cutting defense lineman in pass protection or blocking linebackers on the QB draw...Shows ability to cut or square up, mirror and use hands in pass protection...Takes good angles when leading and neutralizing second-level defenders on the draw plays.


    NICE NICE NICE.

    I'm starting to think we are having more luck with some of the picks after the first 7 rounds..
