Featured Player: RB Matt Forte

Tulane’s star running back Matt Forte demonstrates his skills in this highlight reel. He had an outstanding senior year rushing for over 2,100 yards on 361 carries giving him a 5.9 yard average. He also scored 23 touchdowns and caught 23 passes. Forte is a power running back that has good speed. He would be a great compliment to a speedy running back — I’m talking to you, New Orleans. I look for him to be taken in the 3rd or 4th round.

Here are his 2007 stats:

  1. Only thing that worries me about Forte is that he was their entire offense, it’s hard not to get a ton of yards when you’re getting 40+ touches most games

  2. Yes, Forte was their only player, but that should also be a positive for him. He got the chance to prove himself and he did just that.

  3. Although, it was against weaker talent, but had the same problem with his team.
