Vereen was a popular player on a lot of Patriots pundits lists. I had him at #37 on my Patriots big board. He’s a versatile back who runs hard. Perfect Pat. Here’s the description:
Shane Vereen (RB, 5-10, 210, CAL) shifty, sudden back with good awareness, could eventually contribute on third down. NFL.com: compact runner with a low center of gravity. Patient back that shows the ability to find holes and cutback lanes. Runs hard and fights for extra yards after contact. Possesses great hands and instincts as a receiver. Can split out wide and shows good effort and technique in pass protection.
