Summary
Strengths
Explosive acceleration through the LOS, burst leads to a lot of chunk gains
All-scheme runner that can pick you apart in zone, barely any outside zone in 2024 tape then flourished in it in 2025 (8.4 YPC)
Gets downhill with a purpose and churns through contact
95th percentile in yards after contact per attempt in 2025 (4.5)
Really difficult for a defender to bring him down 1v1
Multiple plays where he cleanly hurdles a defender
Passion he plays with stand outs (example: would lead block for Riley Leonard in 2024 on Qb runs)
Weaknesses
Can get caught running upright and exposes himself to big hits
Final Report
Love is an explosive home run hitter that can impact the game on any down. He's a gifted runner in any scheme that creates his own yards at a special rate. His patience helps him seek out an opening and his acceleration allows him to explode through it. He is very difficult for defenders to tackle in one on one situations with quick cuts, ridiculous hurdles or pure breakaway speed. Love is in a special tier of running back prospect due to his pass game ability on top of the work he does on the ground. His routes are twitchy and his speed translates to easy separation skills. For how talented he is, Love does not get the credit he deserves from a pure compete and determination standpoint. This shows up in pass protection where he stays square and strikes with authority. Overall, Love is the type of player an offense can be built around and is worthy of a top five selection in this draft.
