RB Vai Taua

5’10, 220 lbs.

Taua is a compact style runner who knows how to get small in the hole and then bust out into the open field. He has the ideal build for a back who you use between the tackles to help move the pile. He has a thick lower body that allows him to generate a lot of power while running. He also does a good job of keeping his legs churning through the hole.

Possibly an MJD clone?

Strictly training camp fodder; Draftpick White is looking good and likely to stick.

I saw Taua play a few times when he was at Nevada, and I thought he was really good. Surprised he didn't get drafted. Don't really know if his skillset will translate into the NFL game, but he was good in WAC football.

Footspeed is the concern with him. He's a bowling ball once he gets going, but it takes too long.

He has a great name, for what it's worth.
