Dynasty Rookie Draft Profile: Kenny McIntosh

Kenny McIntosh Dynasty Rookie Draft Outlook

McIntosh is smooth as butter as a receiver. He was aligned in the slot and out wide in college, where he looked like a natural. He’s clean in and out of his breaks with soft hands. He could be a dangerous dual threat with a smart OC at the next level. McIntosh is an upright slasher type as a rusher. McIntosh can make smooth jump cuts in the open field, which is impressive considering his size. While he can shed arm tackles, his height and upright running style can lead him to be brought down by the first tackler if they get a decent wrap on him. He’s not a pile mover. McIntosh has good vision in traffic. He is adept at getting small through creases and lets his blocks develop. He’s very comfortable with zone concepts and has enough speed to get around the edge. With the limited pass protection reps I saw, he had a solid anchor. He flashed more physicality in some of these reps than I saw as a rusher which leads me to believe that he has more untapped power to finish runs.

Kenny McIntosh 2023 NFL Draft Outlook

McIntosh is a pretty big running back who has the quickness and patience to get what’s available and who also offers a reliable pair of hands in the passing game. However, he who doesn’t have the consistent grittiness of some of his peers in the class, limiting the number of yards he can gain after contact. With some more glass in his diet, he could turn into a pretty good member of a running-back committee, but he may have to wait until the mid-to-late rounds to hear his name called and will likely begin his career as a reserve.
