    He can catch & opposing Ds had better be prepared to hit him more than once to take him down. Looks like a TANK on short yardage plays, although he appears to be a solid "every down" power back. I am very partial to this kind of back.

    Same here Mike, this kid is a player and kudos to the boys for getting Denver to give him up. I am very excited about what he brings to the table. I can easily see him being a fan favorite in no time.

    He is a perfect compliment for Harrison and teamed with Vickers (hopefully) will give us a power set to be reckoned with.

    The kid is versatile, smart, powerful, a great pass catcher and has some wheels. He loves to hit too. You can win in this league with guys like him.

  • if his hands are so good why not use him as a TE hybrid?

    i'd like to see if Hillis could possibly fill some of Heiden's old role. in that capacity we'd still use all our current backs and he could release and catch passes too. i hope he becomes another weapon.

    Before he got fired, Shanny publicly mused about using Hillis in that type of role: not limiting him to TE, but allowing him to use his versatile skill set at a couple different spots.

    I hope we see his skill set maximally utilized in that way in Cleveland.
