166. NEW YORK GIANTS: TYRONE TRACY, RB, PURDUE
Height: 5-foot-11
Weight: 209 pounds
STRENGTHS
Combine star
3-down potential
Explosive playmaker
WEAKNESSES
Experience
Instincts
Power
Team Fit: A former receiver, Tyrone Tracy is a project at RB. But he could pay off handsomely. His burst and fluidity are uncommon, and the Giants had a big need.

Two stats that I LOVE for Tyron Tracy right off the bat:
Among Draft Eligible RB's with 60 carries:
1st (!!) in yards after contact per attempt
10th in breakaway rate
17th in missed tackles forced, one more than Trey Benson
Love the advanced numbers!

The Elevator Pitch: Tracy spent four years as a wide receiver and return specialist at Iowa. Watch his Iowa tape and you
see a wealth of trapping targets to his body and fighting the football, which is among the reasons why he's more intriguing
as a running back.
Tracy is an elusive runner who layers movements in the open field to avoid defenders. He gets his feet and knees high
enough to get over low shots and he can do this while making elusive moves against pursuit.
Tracy has an excellent stiff-arm that he can deliver with reach and power. He uses his pads well when he prepares for
contact, but he can improve his overall body lean when he runs between the tackles.
Tracy is a promising athlete with elite change of direction quickness that he applies well as a running back but may have
room to get even better as he becomes more adept as a decision maker between the tackles. Tracy can make an early
impact in the D'Andre Swift-Kenyan Drake role as a player earning the ball in open space or handed the ball on plays
between the tackles that are designed to simulate open space such as draws and toss plays.
A short-term trap-door that could undermine success in this role could be ball security because most of his touches came as
a receiver and he has careless moments with ball security between the tackles. If he can continue to learn the position
quickly, he could become a productive committee option by the end of his first contract.
Where is the player inconsistent? Pressing the line of scrimmage
What is the best scheme fit? Spread scheme that feeds him draws, toss, screens, and RPOs.
What is his ceiling scenario? A lead back who has learned to run efficiently and intelligently between the tackles.
What is his floor scenario? A return specialist and occasional gadget player in an offensive rotation.

@DanSchneierNFL
favorite joins the Giants, Purdue RB Tyrone Tracey Jr.
An older prospect (24), a former WR at Iowa who showed impressive RB skills for a player who only played ONE season at the position
He will likely be the kickoff returner for the #Giants with these new rules. Another EXPLOSIVE weapon for Brian Daboll.
