Future Contract Status

Predraft Analysis: Productive runner-receiver when healthy. Rushed for 3,173 yards on 660 carries (4.8-yard avg.) and 23 touchdowns, while catching 79 passes for 705 yards (8.9 avg.) and 2 TDs in four seasons with the Hawkeyes. Bleeds yardage but does not show much magic or true breakaway ability. A good training camp running back who faces a numbers challenge to crack the Vikings roster.
