Veach about to go down as a HOF GM on god

Arguably the fastest back in the draft and did it at about 215 LBs.

Vision isn’t great, not really a pass catcher, isn’t as agile as he is fast (don’t understand the Sproles comp at all).

I mean if you figure he’s a Knile Davis clone, you’re not far off. And in the 7th that’s just fine.

Possible kick returner?

Perhaps he would be an ideal KO/PR/Special Teamer type of a dude?

First pick that wasn't on PFF's top 250.

Still better vision than Clyde

Very nice, congrats. :-)

I don't know why either. This kid slipped under everybody's radar.

I freaking knew it!

Excellent speed, solid balance, big body, looks solid catching the ball.

I like it

Well...Stevie Wonder has better vision than Clyde so that's not saying much really.

Yup.

Again - a VERY Knile Davis sort of player.

Give him a clear seam and the ability to hit it in stride and he’ll blast through there and maybe knock the first guy he sees down in the process.

But I don’t see him picking his way down the line and making a controlled cut after he sets his blockers up or something like that. Good runner when his shoulders are square and can punish guys that aren’t ready for his speed at that size, but I don’t see a 3-down back or even a primary 1st/2nd down guy in this system.

3.9 ypc in college isn't good though. 1.9 per catch? Yeesh.

Pre-Draft Analysis
Pacheco averaged just 3.9 yards per carry and 1.9 yards per catch last year, but he has outstanding top-end speed. He runs with great effort and has average contact balance. He's a hands catcher, and he flashes as a route runner. -- Steve Muench

Not surprising. For a big fast guy in a soft conference, his production is pretty wanting. And he wasn’t actually the HR hitter his size and the stopwatch says he should be.

And again - I’m not shitting on the pick. We took Davis in the 3rd round right? Getting a guy that’s damn near a clone of him in the 7th is solid.

But this is a strictly measurables play. He wasn’t anywhere close to as productive as the highlight real and stopwatch/scale says he should’ve been. So PFF isn’t gonna like him.
