His skillset was really unique and I honestly am having trouble even drawing a similar comparison to him in today's NFL. He was very very shifty with an awesome jump cut move (similar to Lesean McCoy) and had great hands. He could make something out of nothing in little space, but also was not that explosive and looked completely lost running at the second level. I don't think he broke more than one or two long runs in his whole career, but he had awesome hands, a good football brain and was fantastic in pass pro.

Ultimately, Addai was definitely a wasted first round pick even if he contributed in that Superbowl with like 10 catches. In hindsight, we should have just resigned Edge. He went on to having another good 4 years in the league.

I respectively disagree. If a guy helps you win a Super Bowl and Addai definitely did that, it's not a wasted draft pick. Having said that, Edge is one of my favorite Colts of all time.
