Yep. You can make some freshman mistakes on reading your blockers and the defense if you can outrun everyone.

'23 KS RB Dylan Edwards (Signed to COLORADO)
- Thread starter WasianCU

I think he’ll be a third down back, slot option, and gadget guy out of the backfield. Should be lots of fun in Lewis’ offense.
He specifically talked about how he wants to be a versatile weapon (WR/RB) because he thinks that will be more valued in the league, by the time he gets there, based on how things are evolving.
That's how RBs get paid in the NFL.
I hope his running vision is as good as his career vision.
You are not a 3rd down back until you understand the offense barring a very a specific play.
That being said, I think we will see enough explosion plays this year that, assuming he learns the offense, he is pushing for feature back time next year.
I saw a tweet in this thread and my heart rate skyrocketed.
Me too. Then I saw BH's face before I read the tweet and wondered "why is a women's basketball tweet posted in this thread?".
Love it, more attention for his NIL and he was looking really fit in the recent videos, he is a cool young man
Looking forward to seeing him with an offensive line that actually opens some holes.
looking to lose that holiday weight
He was doing the Pro Cone drill and the ground could not handle how fast his feet wanted to move, he is quick as ****
Starting to look like Reggie Bush
He's not a back like Phil was who could make something out of nothing but he is one of those rare guys who can turn a little into something big.
I pray Shurmur is able to use these weapons creatively and not just think of them as generic X’s and O’s
Edwards is special and needs 8-10 creative open field touches.
Prime is not an offensive coach but he knows what gives defenses problems. Shurmur is going to be the OC but I'm expecting that Prime is going to be coaching him to be more unpredictable and attack more aggressively.

Yikes! Phil’s career tanked when Shurmur took on the Broncos offense…

I see no reason to root for him any more than I would any other person trying to succeed in life. I see no reason to root against him more than anyone else on an opposing team. He seems like a decent young man whose priority is getting the best deal to be a featured back - which just seems normal to me.
Where was it advertised that he came to us for money money prior to the K State offer?
Saw it rumored on 247 in probably January that he was a flight risk due to a big KSU offer
Coach Klieman acted super innocent about how he contact him once he entered the portal, like it was just a fortuitous opportunity that showed up.
He was backdoor approached by the KState NIL folks, especially through his father, and it was way too much to turn down. I can buy the homesick thing, but that combined with cash is what brought him home. I wish him luck, but I know he has already been replaced.
