 All right, all right, all right. What do we have here another running back on our hands from the Chargers? Austin Eckler number 46 on the list of the top 100 NFL players in 2022 Let's get into it. That's like I want to see squats Well, that's 220 like 700 800 pounds. It's like look I don't know about 700 or 800, but it's at least 500 And that seemed easy like a truck For reps bear all those workout videos that he posts on social media pay off like you just go out of bear. That's crazy Coming from the man who got four reps in the bench press at at the combine. I get it Appreciate it. Um, all right, let's have a look at the stats then next Monday Boom here we go 27 years of age may 17 1995 five foot eight 200 pounds went to Western Colorado from 13 to 16 undrafted in 2017 he comes in it. Yeah, like I said five foot eight okay Running back not bad. He is actually five foot eight and five eighth of an inch So I'm gonna say five foot eight and a half give him that in fact, you know what he's closer at five eighths of an inch He's actually closer to five foot nine than five foot eight and with that in mind I'm gonna edit this shit. I'd honestly I'd love to give him another inch. I really would but I feel like I feel like these stats here on the side are actually Inserted by nfl.com for whatever reason whereas his story so to speak Can be edited So, uh, let's get down to his stats 72 games played 2,812 yards total including 911, which is his career high last year 12 touchdowns, which is also his career high by a fucking long shot. It looks as if he's I don't know what's happened, but he had 206 attempts last year As opposed to 116 the year before 132 the year before that 160 the year before that and 47 in his rookie year Still averaging, you know fairly decent yards. I mean, he's he's never gone under 4.2 yards per attempt Doesn't matter how many attempts he's had 21 total touchdowns. Like I said 282 receptions 2726 receiving yards including 647 last year I'm gonna say that he's probably been targeted more so as a receiver than a running back And certainly was in 2019, but what that means guys is that after five years He's almost at 3,000 rushing yards and 3,000 receiving yards So he's certainly a double he's he's he's a threat all over the park He's got more receiving touchdowns than rushing touchdowns 21 rushing 24 receiving And uh, look, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna leave the rest to to the video Um, he's obviously strong 448 for the 40i dash 40.5 inches on the vertical 10 for 8 the broad jump So whatever he lacks in height he certainly makes up In athleticism, let's go Austin Eckler popped onto the scene by posting his workout videos on social media He posted on instagram Maybe like two years ago. He was doing like pull-ups to one on I'm just like, all right Austin like we know you're strong Now he pops off the screen as much for his work on the field as in the gym People see Austin. He's like, oh, he played running back like, oh, man I'm about to go ahead and do x y and z until you turn on the family to actually play against the guy Austin's a very powerfully lucive little guy I'm not saying anything. I'm just listening He's low to the ground big legs. He's like a bowling ball I remember I tried to tackle him one time and it's just It's hard to wrap him up And he's able to manage at least five out of it He's got a lane 35 40 still on his feet 45 still on his feet 50 still on his feet There are three guys all bigger than Austin Eckler and they couldn't bring him down One-on-one in the open space. Uh, it's that's a tough tackle for anybody to make he can make you miss a lot of broken We can certainly make you miss all right to be able to pull through a tackle to finish it off in the end zone Can lower his shoulder just puts his head down You can look like he's He's stopped or y'all should have had him for a loss Is this barry sanders or is this Austin eckler is one missed tackle or one broken tackle And then it's 20 yards later. It's 30 yards later or it's a touchdown Eckler has a man to beat and of course he makes the first man second man miss still on his feet I shouldn't have scored that but that's Bang and again and bang That's what i'm talking about has both the agility and quickness to excel in the open field I like it man. I like it. That's like a rugby step. I do like it I mean, I don't know what a rugby step is constituted as Or by but um, there's a guy called benji marshal that does that kind of thing one Bang two bang three You know these three players how it's a succeed near the goal line Move the pile down to the floor down to the three down to the two down to the one across the well I'll tell you what if I ever did see a team effort. That's it And he is one of the nfl's best receivers out of the backfield. Yeah, no, I I can see that. Yep He got 950 yards one year as a running back All right I think he's one of those guys that you know can easily have 2,000 scrimmage yards, you know I see them how about that romacon history the most touchdown receptions by an Undrafted running back Poyer well guys, I certainly enjoyed that and I think we're going to enjoy this one just as much Jordan Poyer now when I see his face and I see his name. I think Struggle I think coming from Rock bottom to The heights of The nfl and I'll say no more Austin necler best of luck for this year, mate I'm going to absolutely enjoy seeing you play and and I'll tell you what if you're still available in round five six or seven In my fantasy draft, I might actually pick you up. So cheers, mate, and I'll see you guys in the next one peace out
