Here is another prospect to keep an eye on. Prosise saw action at S and WR during his early years at ND. In 2015, the Irish moved him to RB. He did not disappoint. He is still learning the position, but the potential is through the roof. He already shows phenomenal patience, vision and cutting ability. He's also one of the best pass-catching backs in the draft. Perhaps his most impressive trait is his second gear. Once Prosise finds an opening he is gone. You'll notice he takes a lot of carries out of the gun which is a huge plus for our offense.

Prosise has potential to be a star. Sitting behind Stew & Co. for one season will allow him to continue developing as a RB. A future duo of CJ and CAP is something I'd like to see.

I hadn't watched any video of him before the above highlight video, but I gotta say I 100% agree he'd be a great fit for us.  He runs a bit upright and his center of gravity is a little higher than I like for a RB, but for those to be my only real complaints about a recent convert to RB is a good sign for him.  The experience in the passing game would be crucial, can take the Tolbert role we currently employ and would have probably better hands (and longer arms) and more YAC potential than Tolbert.  I'd be ok with as high as our 3rd on him if it's looking necessary.

Very interesting prospect, I'll have to watch games of his before I can make a true determination but man that acceleration is out of this world. Seems like he'd b a good offensive weapon but 3rd seems high from everything I gathered so far.

After watching some full game breakdowns, I may have been a bit too impressed by the highlights.  3rd would be a bit too high.  I still wouldn't mind us picking him in the 5th round or so, like ecu88 said, but there were a lot of times he was just ineffectual.

Yeah agreed. He's only been a RB for one season so he's still learning the position. But his potential is very high imo.

Nice highlights.  Love how he just hits 2nd gear and goes.

In recent fanspeak mocks I've done, he's generally been among the ten highest-ranked players remaining when we draft in round 4, but he's off the board when we pick in round 5,

      What's your confidence level in Canales?

      By flagfootballcoach28 · Posted

      Some of you who are not sold on Canales are insane. His main purpose was to turn around Bryce Young’s career and he did that. Of all of the teams in the top 10 of the NFL draft, we were the team that was consistently showing the most fight week in and week out. Our players never quit on the season. The offense which he is responsible for took a huge step forward compared to last year, despite the lack of skill talent  that we have. It was our defense that was a mess. That’s one of my critiques on Canales. He should’ve gotten rid of Evero and hired his own DC that shares the same vision. But as a whole, I can’t see how people are not pleased with what Canales did with this team. I’d give him an 9/10

      QB School: Bryce Young vs Falcons

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      One of the first thoughts after the game yesterday was that JT was going to jump all over it. He's been more favorable about BY from the beginning, and so yesterday must've felt like Christmas.

      Mock Draft from the 33rd Team

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Maybe, but they were always going to be an impossible team to accurately mocked right now. They have an absurd amount of cap room, what they need right now will not be what they need come draft day.  They can make multiple big splash signings and even make trades for players who need new contracts and their teams don't want to give it to them. OT and WR might be their two biggest needs right now, but it wouldn't be unreasonable to think they could go into the draft needing neither of them.  I think a LT will be their top FA priority, also think they're going to make a big offer to Higgins, and I could see them being a team in the running to trade for someone like DK Metcalf as they need a WR like him and they have the cap space to give him a big new contract.
