Pope reminds me of a slightly more fluid Justin Forsett. I don't know if he has Forsett's vision but physically they are very similar IMO.
Rawls was definitely projected to be a diamond in the rough, his biggest concerns coming out were character and medical, which is why he fell in the draft. He was widely projected to be an NFL quality started, NFL.com compared him to Ahmad Bradshaw, and there were several articles considering him the dark horse of the NFL Draft. In some ways the question marks are still valid, he played what, 10 games last year before getting injured?
