Crowell is simply an explosive package at the running back position. Looks a tad smaller than his listed measurables but this guy is very well-built and compact. Built low to the ground and deceptively a very powerful back. Hits the hole fast just as the creases open and reaches top-speed almost instantly. Displays excellent foot-quickness and suddenness through traffic and is very difficult to get a clean shot on. Runs with his eyes, makes the sharp cutback through the small creases and rarely gears down when changing direction. An ideal zone runner with great pick and slide ability. Can beat defenses with great lateral quickness and burst to the outside as well and shows he can accelerate with a great second gear and pull away from closing defenders with an angle. What puts him in an elite class is his strength, power, ability to run between the tackles and earn tough yards after contact for a speed guy. His explosive momentum through the hole coupled with his great balance, strong core and lower body allows him to absorb the hit and bounce off a lot of initial contact. Cuts on a dime and changes direction sharply in the openfield giving him big play ability when he gets in space or breaks through to the second level. Flashes good hands and receiving skills out of the backfield and in the screen game but will need to continue polishing up in that area as well in blitz pickup and as an overall blocker. Like to see a bit larger frame to build up but he's close to being maxed out physically and overall as a back; not a high upside guy. That said, Crowell has excellent natural ability as runner and should develop into a highly productive every-down back early in his career.
