Ron Helu, RB - Nebraska

They traded up from their #127 (4th rd) pick to #105 with the Texans. They gave up two 5th rounders, #144 and 152. Helu is not very polished, but he has good size, speed and average 7 yds a carry at Nebraska.
Pros - Size, speed, Lateral agility, wide base, durable and protects the ball.
Cons - poor pass protection, doesn't get as low as he should
