If he gets behind the right O-line look out! With Mendenhall leaving Pitt – Ball might be the answer for Steller nation

What worries me the most about him is his mileage. He’s a typical Big 10 workhorse.

It may not be fair, but I would be surprised if a team uses a first or second rounder on this guy, stats or no stats.

Good luck, Montee Ball!

If the Packers are lucky enough to get him, their running back woes would be over.

I would love for him to be great in the NFL.

I have a tough time believing it though. Rushes when its designed to be going off tackle and bounces it outside.

The LBs in the NFL are a lot faster than the ones they had in Nebraska.

That said I do wish Mr. Ball a healthy and hopefully a very productive career.
