Thats who he compares himself to:

“You hear that I’m like those guys, or like [current Cincinnati Bengals back] Brian Leonard(notes),” Gerhart says. “I see myself more like Deuce McAllister(notes) or Michael Turner(notes).”



Race factors into evaluation of Gerhart - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Saw him gash USC in person last season. Very impressive. He hits the hole very quickly and always gains a few yards after contact.

I think the Michael Turner comparison fits.

was thinking more of mike alstott.

Would like to see him in the Black and Gold.

maybe rob carpenter or jacob hester.

maybe larry czonka or paul hornung

they lost taylor. gerhart will take some hits off of ap
