Jordan Chunn – RB – Troy

At first glance for Jordan Chunn, you think he will be a wrecking ball style of running back. Then you start watching him play and realize he is rather agile for a guy his size. He isn’t going to outrun people, but he has the ability to make them miss. Chunn has the power for a short yardage running back, but the close space agility of someone much smaller.

Chunn rushed for over a 100 yards against LSU and can be a receiving threat out of the backfield. Where Chunn could suffer is his history of losing the ball more than a team would like. He is also not really a pass blocker as he was rarely asked to do so. In the NFL Chunn is seen as short yardage back right now.

Chunn will have to work his way up the roster if he wants to hang around more than the practice squad. He has the workings of a decent backup running back, but has to focus on his flaws to have a long tenure in the NFL.

It is possible the Dallas Cowboys see him as a fullback who can add something to the running and passing game. If he can work on holding onto the ball and pass protection, he has a real chance to be a solid depth player. For now, he will most likely end up on the practice squad, which at least keeps his foot in the door.
