The Rams pegged Todd Gurley as the top overall prospect on their draft board, according to NFL Media's Albert Breer.

Jeff Fisher appears to have taken that love affair to another level.

According to Bleacher Report's NFL Insider Jason Cole, Fisher believes Gurley can be better than Eddie George and Chris Johnson, and is "one of the more unique running back talents he's seen in decades."

The head coach also cited similarities to Eric Dickerson, both from a physical standpoint and skill-wise.

Lofty praise indeed for a rookie that has yet to play a single down in the NFL.
