He's a classic power back prospect suited for a downhill, gap-scheme run-heavy offense prioritizing interior rushes and physical trench play.
Howard can immediately contribute as a primary ball-carrier in situations requiring tough yardage, with the ceiling to be a feature back in a power-run offense.
He would be a poor fit for a high-volume outside zone or spread RPO scheme that relies heavily on quick cuts, lateral agility, or receiving versatility.
Howard projects best as a system-specific back whose effectiveness is tied directly to a commitment to a power rushing attack.
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.
