Well, I think he is. I'm not saying he's the fastest, but he is definitely the quickest RB in the league. In terms of just being able to shift, cut, create space, and make things happen, the only person that I've seen quicker than DD right now is Dante Hall, and he's not even a RB. We're pretty lucky to have a breakout player like him. He's definitely a premiere RB. Not sure if he can break open a 50 yrd run like a Clinton Portis, but he makes up for it with a whole lot of consistency every carry. I'd compare his style to a little bit like Emmit Smith. Just a lot of quickness to thread himself across the trenches.
He just needs to fix his ball carrying. He didn't do a very good job hanging onto the ball last year either. Hope he fixes it soon. We definitely don't need a Tiki Barber here in Houston.
