Anthony McFarland Jr., Maryland Terrapins
BackCAST score: +39.1%
Type of back: Balanced
Similar historical prospects: Clinton Portis, Chris Brown
McFarland is a solid if unspectacular prospect. He soaked up carries at a slightly higher rate than the average drafted running back, averaging roughly a half-yard per carry more than the average drafted running back, and he ran a fast 4.44-second 40-yard dash but was a little light at 208 pounds. McFarland would be a grossly overrated prospect as a first-round pick, but he is clearly not -- he's likely to go somewhere in the late third or early fourth where he could be a great value play.
