The guy will never be elite because he doesn't possess that type of skill set, but what he does have is a well balanced game and he can do damn near everything coaches will ask of him right away.
If he works at it, I think he could be another Frank Gore...but there may be a better comparison for him. Priest may be a bit of a stretch, but I do think the guy can be a highly effective player in the NFL. He blocks well, understands angles, catches well out of the backfield, has good power and is a smart football player that every coach wants on his team.
That pick was one of the steals of this draft IMO.
