CJ Prosise, RB, Notre Dame

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,

    • That would be a great pick, he might be my favorite for us right now. 
    • The coach- Canales was a rookie hc and at times looked like it. But he did manage to revamp the offense, helped Bryce not look like the biggest bust of the draft, exuded positivity,  and made the panthers watchable again. We have a viable head coach for the first time since rivera The gm- Morgan had some hits and some big misses. Hits- the ol, Coker,demani, dj at first. Misses- almost every d player signed, brooks, the jury is out on x. I get what he was trying to do with brooks/Hubbard but it blew up in his face. Hopefully he learns from his mistakes. But he did trade mingo for a 4th, managed to get a 2nd rounder this year from the Rams and I am a fan of constantly churning the bottom of the roster The draft- x can be a solid player but not until he catches the ball, brooks was a high risk pick that didn't work out, Wallace, demani and Chau Smith can be solid contributors and showed glimpses, Coker and jt should be mainstays. And flipping a 7th round lb that was about to be cut for Jackson was a great move.  The offense- had its ups and downs but Bryce has turned from one of the biggest busts in nfl history to a potential franchise qb, that change is worth its weight in gold, thielen was crafty and underrated as usual, Coker was a gem, jt was the solid but has some growing to do, and Hubbard has been awesome, the o line was much improved as well The defense- well...they set records, injuries, poor coaching (imo), bad playcalling and just plain sucking this defense needs everything to change, we need horn and Jackson back and we get brown back but we need bodies and an identity. If they can do with the def what they did with the o then we can challenge for the division bc we already have some pieces there.  Overall- this was a growth year full of questions and some of the major ones were answered(qb, coach). For the first time in a long time the season didn't end depressingly and I do have cautious optimism for next year. But they need to learn from the mistakes of 2024 and if they do I like where this team is headed. On to the draft and 2025
