100% serious. We just haven't had an OC that has been able to exploit his talents.Did you just say Deejay is a Reggie Bush type talent?? Hope that was 1000% sarcasm

Plenty of football left for him this year and next year as well.100% serious. We just haven't had an OC that has been able to exploit his talents.
I like Deejay but this is ridiculous. Reggie bush Was the most exciting college player ever. Dallas is not that guy period. Is he versatile like bush? Maybe but he’s DEFINITELY not a bush type of talent100% serious. We just haven't had an OC that has been able to exploit his talents.
You all are overrating athleticism in a running back.
It is a non-factor determining a running back's success.
It is certainly nice to have, but might be dead last in what correlates to running back success at all levels.
geez, can we wait a bit for this? Let's enjoy the season and for a while
agreed but i think he gets drafted in the later rounds.I don’t think he is faster than 4.6. Homer went in the 6th round at 4.48. Just don’t see DJ going in the 3-4 round .
How? And what do you consider athleticism?You all are overrating athleticism in a running back.

Balance, footwork and production are pretty important, too. He has the first two and he’s checking off the last box so far this season.
Draft position is hard to peg because RBs are devalued. But he is showing he can play in the pros. His versatility will be a separator for him.
There is absolutely nothing similar about Reggie bush and Deejay. If Reggie bush had played in this Era he’d be considered a top 3 back in the NFL..Reggie bush was a all time talent just in the wrong era..if i had to compare Deejay to anybody in the league RN I’d say Kareem hunt. Size, speed running style, and pass catching abilities100% serious. We just haven't had an OC that has been able to exploit his talents.

If a guy like James Conner can go late 3rd round and start in the league then so can deejay who imo is a better athlete and talent. If he continues what he’s doing now and a put up a 1300 yard plus season and tests well he may end up being a late top 100 pickThe Kerryon Johnson/Kareem Hunt comparisons are a little lofty for me.
I see Dallas as being a solid #3, maybe #2 option in the NFL. A guy that gives you about 200-400 total yards a year.
More like a Wendell Smallwood/Rex Burkhead /Damien Williams (when he was on the Dolphins) type career.
James Conner was a beast at Pitt bro. Just got sick. If Deejay goes that high I’d be shocked. If he leaves early it would be a mistake. But tbh next year we’d have the best bunch of backs on the roster since 2010 with Storm, Cooper, James, berry, Miller and JJIf a guy like James Conner can go late 3rd round and start in the league then so can deejay who imo is a better athlete and talent.

How many 220-pound RBs can take punts to the house? He has a pretty unique skillset.

He scored 32 rushing touchdowns in 1 yearDevin singletary went 3rd round at 5’8 sub 200 running a 4.73, nfl is weird like that
There are plenty of players who have more production but aren’t as talented than certain players who have less come on now... no doubt Conner was very productive but again from a talent and athleticism perspective, is he a top percentile at his position? No, he’s far from it. And can the season be played first?Conner had 1,765 yds - 5.9 ypc - 26 TD's as a Sophomore. Pitt also played him 2 ways at DE while he played RB. He was a Pro-Bowler in his 2nd year.
Going into this season you thought Dallas wasn't as good as Greg Cooper or Joe Yearby.
In 3 games, 1 of which was Bethune Cookman - you've gone from comparing Dallas to undrafted RB's to NFL Pro-Bowl RB's.
I mean......OK....sure, why not
