Strengths

  • Dynamic speed back in the mold of Ray Rice
  • Tremendous production - Have averaged 1,293 yds rushing, 351 yds receiving and 17 TDs per season throughout his OSU career
  • Excellent speed, acceleration and burst
  • Natural receiver out of the backfield
  • Elusive - makes people miss and is a threat in the open field
  • Good vision - finds creases and cutback lanes
  • Great change of direction and agility - can cut on a dime
  • Low center of gravity allows for excellent balance and agility
  • Tough - runs hard between the tackles and fights for yardage
  • Strong intangibles

Weaknesses

  • Undersized
  • Workload - Has averaged 313 touches per year for three straight years
  • Runs hard but by virtue of his stature he is not a power back
  • Durability - A frequent flyer on the injury report
  • Despite carrying a heavy load at Oregon State, Jacquizz does not project as an every down back.  That said he is the type of dual threat who could thrive in a wide open passing attack
