The Skinny

Although he waiver a bit, Dean signed with the Bruins

The Analysis

This upright running back is a great inside-outside threat. He is very comfortable running between the tackles and is physical enough to pick-up the dirty yards. He also has great lateral quickness and burst out of his cuts. Dean has a nasty stutter step move that he uses to get to the edge. He does not have elite speed but rarely gets caught from behind. He uses his quickness and acceleration to mask his lack of top-end speed.

Dean’s cuts have no wasted movements as he plants and goes as quickly as any running back in this class. He is also a nice threat out of the backfield in the passing game. He has solid hands and good enough ball skills to be an impact player in the screen/swing passing game.

His running style is the only worry. He runs very upright much like the former Colorado Buffalo Chris Brown or OU’s Adrian Peterson. Both of those runners have dealt with injury issues their entire careers.
