Comment:
Blaylock is an athletic change-of-pace back. He was the Jets' alternate kickoff return specialist in 2005 and is pretty versatile. He is a slasher who has good speed and acceleration to get downhill quickly and press the hole. He has deceptive big-play ability and a little more power than his size suggests. He has some run instincts and vision. He has decent hands and can be productive after the catch in the open field. But Blaylock is undersized and is more effective on the perimeter than inside. He doesn't always see run lanes develop and too often tries to cut back or bounce outside. He lacks the power to consistently run through contact between the tackles. He is a small receiving target, and he goes down easily after the catch. He lacks bulk and good leverage in pass protection. He plays small and is inconsistent as a blocker.
