What the analysts are saying
- "Hines has dual-threat talent but doesn't have the size for full-time work at running back" - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
- "At minimum, Hines is a big play threat every time he touches the ball with the positional versatility to save a roster spot with it entirely possible that he'll achieve much more with a creative play-caller." - Rob Rang, NFLDraftScout.com
