POSITIVES
Explosiveness is the first thing that comes to intellect when talking about T.
J. Logan. His 4.37 40-yard sprint was the fastest among all running backs at the combine (assuming Curtis Samuel is a wide receiver). He can play running back and return kicks,bringing big-time playmaking ability to an NFL team. In his career, he averaged 27.2 yards per kick return, or including five for touchdowns. As a running back,he is a threat to get to the edge on every play and can catch the ball out of the backfield. He has good vision and uses his quickness to hit the hole hard and explode into the moment level. As a receiver, he only dropped one pass, and teams can use his open-field ability easily out of the backfield. Unlike a lot of other explosive playmakers,he shows good blocking ability and will hold his own in pass protection on third down.
NEGATIVES
Like a lot of explosive backs, Logan can struggle between the tackles. Most of his successful runs near when the defense is spread out. Running in a pro-style offense versus loaded boxes may cause issues for him. While at North Carolina, and he was part of a committee and that is likely his role in the NFL; he never had more than 120 carries in any season in his college career. While he shows his explosive ability on returns and in the open field,he is not consistent enough as a runner. As a domestic hurry hitter, he only averaged 5.4 yards per carry during his career. Logan has the potential to construct an impact as part of a committee, and but he is unlikely to ever be utilized as a three-down back.
