Ourlads' Profile:
2021 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about TRAVIS ETIENNE: Clemson, 5101 215 4.45. Four-year starter, Jennings, LA. Led the program in rushing all four seasons. Etienne is a two time ACC Offensive Player of the Year and a three time All America. The two-time Doak Walker Award finalist re-wrote the program’s record book for both career and single season production. One of the more decorated and accomplished running backs to enter the league in a long time. It is rare for a running back to produce at such a high level from day one as a freshman and play out all four years of his college career. He will enter the league as a playmaker who can contribute to both the running and passing game right away. His ability to run low to the ground with elite balance and leg drive in combination with the breakaway burst and speed will make him one of the more dangerous weapons in the NFL. He is a no-nonsense, dependable worker bee who will change an offense right away. A do-it-all, every down back with capabilities and potential to score every time he touches the ball. Excels at picking up yards after contact via late wiggle and a fall forward mentality. Will play a power-game, pushing defenders backward with a strong and balanced base. Plays with hunger, always wants more. Quick and shifty enough to miss contact. Explosive and fast enough to run away from defenders in the open field. Has 26 career runs of over 30 yards. Highly improved and competitive receiver. Sees the ball into his hands as a pass catcher and quickly turns upfield. Won’t always take what is given to him. Too many false steps as he shifts through the traffic inside. Needs to be more situationally aware. Vision is questionable on short yardage carries and doesn’t run with enough patience. Gets good initial contact when taking on a blitzing linebacker but struggles to maintain positioning. Had a career high four fumbles in 2020. 2020 stats: 914 yds, 5.4 ypc, 14 TD, 48 rec, 588 yds, 12.3 ypr, 2 TD. First/second round. (A-31 1/8, H-9 3/8, BP-18, SS-4.45).
