Yeah, he\'s still developing, but I think it\'s clear that he doesn\'t really have that elite Pac-10 RB level of speed or quicks. I think that he can still be a very effective RB, though. He consistently gets YAC and rarely fumbles. You don\'t get any long TD runs, but you do get plenty of 2nd and 5.
I think we\'ll be seeing more and more Wilkerson as the year goes on. I\'m curious to see what he looks like getting more than a few carries.
Amanam is not fast enough for his running style to work at this level. I think that\'s becoming apparent. It\'s just not happening. He\'s not explosive enough to be a good scat back. He\'s making a hell of an effort and rising to the challenge, but the physical ability is not quite there, IMO. He\'s over-achieving right now.
