That's the one.  I guess what I'm seeing is a RB who is always running north-south.  He can definitely cut and make people miss, but he's not a Reggie Bush/Barry Sanders type who will juke a lot and jump side-to-side to get free.  If you are Sanders or Bush you can get away with some of that stuff (well, for Sanders, you can get away with it all the time).  But a lot of backs have to learn to be more decisive.  Ricky Watters, the great ND/49ers back comes to mind; and Bush, too, has become more decisive over the course of his NFL carreer, IMO.  Regardless of how productive Young turns out, it looks to me like he makes up his mind and goes toward the goal line (even when he is 80 yards or so away).  Of course, that evaluation is from looking at a highlight reel of his top plays.  But I'm excited to see how he performs this year.  I expect we'll see some competition between Young and Remound Wright.  FWIW, Wright I recall received a lot of compliments for his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield when he was attending recruiting camps.  Just another weapon for the coaches to work with.
