Graded Runningback Traits:

• Ball Security: 8/10 (Only four fumbles in the last two seasons)
• Blocking: 4/10 ( Rarely was he asked to do this besides a couple of chips so it is difficult to project. However his lack of experience suggests he will need to work on this to pair with his pass catching ability)
• Burst: 4/10 (Does not switch speeds very well or have elite juice)
• Change of Direction: 8/10 (Does not always use COD but he can stop on a dime. Sometimes he bounces outside too much though)
• Durability: 8/10 (Three seasons of usage with no official injuries. Although rumors suggested an unlisted injury sapped some his burst away this season)
• Elusiveness: 6/10 (More subtle than shifty, but he can make people miss. Elusiveness does not match his change of direction ability)
• Pass Catching: 8/10 (He has soft hands and has improved every season in this area. Expect this to be his big impact at the next level)
• Power: 5/10 (He lowers his shoulder but it is not a strong part of his game)
• Speed: 5/10 (Very average speed and should not be considered a home run threat)
• Vision: 6/10 (He can read the field but bounces it out too much and misses yards in front of him. That being said he also can change fields when nothing is there to pick up yards)

Prospect Grade: 62/100; 62% (Starter Potential)

Projected Draft Day: Late 2, Early 3

Player Comparison: James White

Player Summary:

Tucker is a very average athlete, but that does not mean he will not be productive at the next level. Some analysts have him pegged as a do it all back and we do not agree. His speed and burst are not there to be an every down player. That being said, he should be elite in the passing game. His hands, wicked change of direction, and route running should get him on the field and have him as a potential 50 catch back every season.
