So Weber often gets compared to Carlos Hyde, who as we all know was a great power runner. Hyde was very different than Zeke, who was power, but had another level of speed he hit when he got to the secondary. And we saw it regularly over the last 2 years, where he would seemingly every game have 40, 50, 60 yard runs for a TD.

It's safe to say that if the coaching staff is confident enough to name Weber the starting RB, that he'll be a good back. However, does he have that kind of speed, or is he going to live up to the comparison of being mainly a power back?
