The ideal system for Carlos Hyde is a power running scheme that emphasizes downhill runs and allows him to break tackles and gain yards after contact.
Year 1 contributor as a short-yardage and goal-line specialist, with the ceiling to become a lead back in a run-heavy attack.
A pass-heavy, spread offense that prioritizes receiving backs and open-field elusiveness will minimize his impact.
Hyde's powerful, physical running style is best utilized in schemes that favor a traditional, between-the-tackles runner.
Selected #57 overall in Round 2 of the 2014 NFL Draft by San Francisco 49ers out of Ohio State.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
