"He's faster than most guys on the field and has the vision to exploit creases and turn them into chunk plays. He’s a tough guy but not a physical runner."
Strengths:
One cut and go guy that brings elite speed and burst. 0-100 in a blink and rarely caught from behind. Changes direction smoothly and with his suddenness, makes him difficult to square up in space. Tough and handled a heavy workload his final season. Good vision and finds daylight.
Weaknesses:
Upright, finesse runner that doesn't play to his size. Gets tripped up or goes down often at first contact. Often a liability as a pass blocker and an inconsistent receiver though he shows soft hands.
Overall:
Penny had obscene production as a senior. He's faster than most guys on the field and has the vision to exploit creases and turn them into chunk plays. He’s tough but not a physical runner. Drops his head instead of his hips and not much of a tackle breaker. Not a reliable pass blocker. Soft hands but needs more experience as a receiver.
