Ke'Shawn Vaughn

Compact runner who carries a low center of gravity. Great lateral agility. Good burst and acceleration when he hits an opening. Smooth runner, but combines that with power. Built solid and has the lower body strength to carry defenders. Keeps his legs moving to pick up extra yards. Great at breaking tackles. Dynamic in the open field, but rarely ever sees the open field due to his blocking. Excels in pass protection and blitz pickup. Great hands in the receiving game, but wasn't used that way frequently in this offense. Good contact balance to his lower center of gravity. Used frequently as a zone runner rather than downhill. Concerns are the offense he played in. The offense at Vandy was atrocious and he was the only bright spot in it. Most likely will rise throughout the draft process due to character and athletic measurables. Overall, a really good running back prospect who will most likely be drafted later on but will carve out a role for himself in the NFL.

Fantasy Impact

Vaughn is buried on the depth chart and has been made inactive for Monday Night Football. Kenjon Barner will be active, presumably for his ability to return kicks. Vaughn remains a stash candidate in dynasty but is multiple injuries away from fantasy relevance this season.
