My thoughts on Tyler Allgeier:

Allgeier's production and usage went through the roof in 2020. He's really fun to watch, and is in the higher side of the sweet spot as far as BMI is concerned


(this graphic brought to you by Football Outsiders)

Between 29 and 31 BMI contains the majority of the 240+ PPR seasons for RBs between 2010 and 2019. He makes cuts in a surprisingly nimble manner for his size. See 0:30 in this highlights video:


His yards per carry (though coming against primarily inferior competition) have been impressive through. In his true freshman year (though only rushing 9 times) he managed 5.6 YPC it's all been uphill from there, with 7.00 YPC in 2019 and 7.53 (!!!) YPC in 2020. This includes his game against Boise State (then ranked 21) where he ripped off a MONSTER 86 YD TD carry in which he demonstrated excellent speed and ball-carrier vision. This all comes after having only 26 carries to his name.

I would like to see him convert more of his weight into muscle. With the fact he can move at decent speeds at his build, I can't imagine how fast he would be with a full spring training under his belt. I would also like to see him become more involved in the blocking game. I don't think it would be any problem for him at his size, but the combination of an incredible offensive line and a great blocking tight end in Isaac Rex, it wasn't something he had to do much during this season. However, with key departures on their O-Line, I'm sure he will have to step into that part of their game more frequently.
