Is there a mock draft on earth where he's not going to the Chargers? Anyone watch him play or know if he's legit?

Yes. Funny you should ask ...

I watched him run all over Fredo's Bearcats for 145 yards in a loss. He's probably the most well rounded back in the draft. Best combination of size and speed. His 4.45 40 time really helped his stock.

And don't be shocked if Houston picks him. They're looking for an all purpose back to pair with Slaton. If Earl Thomas isn't available they could go for Matthews.

I was very impressed with him against UC.

I was impressed with Tebow against UC - I'm sure you're catching my drift...

I think the Chargers priority is a DT. It will matter on how the draft unfolds, but the new pick they aquired from the Seahawks in their Whitehurst trade puts them in a position to get a good DT and RB, moving up 20 spots in the second round. One rumor out here that I don't see as happening is Chargers sending their 1st and Darren Sproles to the 49ers for their 1st round pick and then taking CJ Spiller. I think the pecking order is.

1-CJ Spiller
2-Dan Williams
3-Ryan Matthews

After that you have Bryan Price, Jahvid Best, Jonathan Dwyer, Jared Odrick and Tits Cody.

He is pretty legit. I sawr him do some damage early in the year, against Wisky maybe?
