This kid dominated Division II running for 7073 yards and 92 TD's in his 4 year college career. He ran for over 1500 yards each of his 4 seasons, with a whopping 2337 yards in his senior year.
I honestly don't think we can expect the same in the NFL, or anywhere near that production, but who knows, if Lynch gets hurt, maybe this kid gets a shot for a short term.
He's certainly worthy of watching for a couple years on the Practice Squad.
