I am always a sucker for a good running back and man, Breece Hall is a running back that absolutely checks all the boxes. He just looks so NFL ready in my opinion.
When Breece carries the ball, he has such tremendous vision, he looks like a robot or an android just diagnosing the field, making scans and calculations. Hall displays veteran like patience, just waiting for lanes and holes to develop. As soon as there is a crease he smoothly zips through and just chews up yards.
Hall has great speed, but honestly a good running back should have more than that, and Hall does man. Hall runs with tremendous grace and balance. He really looks like a classic early 2000's or 1990's back.
What I like a lot about Breece to go along with his awesome skills is his size at the running back position. He is 5'11", 217 pounds and I think that is just perfect. He is small enough to be mobile and find the smaller holes and big enough to compete with linebackers physically. He has a perfect ratio of small back qualities and larger power back qualities. I don't know if it's just his pads, but the dude's shoulders look pretty damn broad. Hall played in 12 games in each of his three seasons, so that great further proof of his durability.
Breece is also a very serviceable receiver but what I like is that his receptions came SECOND to his traditional handoff carries. The dude is a legit every down back.
Breece has such a unique great skill set that I don't know if there have been many running backs like him in recent years. I'd say Hall reminds me of Ricky Watters and LaDainian Tomlinson but he leans more toward Watters. I am so glad I do those card posts, I would not have referred to Watters a few months ago!
I'm looking forward to watching Hall at the next level!
