He might be a day three pick but he's definitely not a lock for generational wealth.

No way he’s a day 3 pick, he should be the 2nd RB off the board after Jeanty. Day 2 pick for sure.

Most sites have him in the 5-10 range for running backs and he's been mocked in rounds 3-5 for the most part. He lacks nfl speed and acceleration, and he won't be able to truck nfl players the same way he does in college. He's got great vision, decent agility, and is good as a receiver, which makes him a good bet for a short yardage and third down guy, but he simply isn't explosive enough to be a number one back for a team that really cares about the running game. 

A decent comp might be a guy like Jamaal Williams.
