Antonio Gibson

A third-round pick in last year's draft, Gibson is best known for elite speed (4.39 40). The Memphis product needs very little space to explode for a big gain, and his larger frame allows him to bully his way through contact on occasion as well. The rest of his skill set as a running back is unpolished, but he was still good enough to take over the starting role in Washington almost immediately, and the team's offensive struggles in general didn't hamper his production. Gibson's versatility was also evident in his receiving numbers, though given how he was used in college (originally playing WR), more might have been expected in that area. As long as J.D. McKissic is on the roster, it will be tough for Gibson to carve out a larger role on passing downs. The big question heading into 2021 is whether he's ready to handle a huge rushing workload. Washington's offensive line is solid, but not one of the top units in the league, and Gibson isn't particularly adept at creating for himself. Ryan Fitzpatrick's arrival should steady the offense as a whole, but the veteran QB's track record indicates his arrival will do more to benefit Terry McLaurin than Gibson. Given the state of the Washington depth chart, Gibson should at least dominate early downs, but his ceiling could be capped until he gets a chance at a true three-down role.
