Summary:
Senior. RB starter. Transferred in from New Mexico Military Institute, my career began at Florida State. Multi-use player; used in pass protection, displays good hands when catching out of the backfield, and will motion out to WR out of empty sets. Average running back who does a lot of things well but has below-average speed and isn’t a home-run threat to go the distance with the ball in his hands. Is a good and tough inside runner who displays good vision and patience to follow blocks. Decisive, one-cut runner, runs at a low pad level and consistently finishes forward on contact. Maximizes every carry given to him and generally is quick to get north/south. Does a good job of running through contact and can be very difficult to bring down. Is effective in pass protection; will chip and sometimes take on defenders by himself to buy his QB time. The biggest weakness is a lack of overall speed and explosiveness. Has no change of direction; runs in a straight line and isn’t elusive in space. Has no burst or extra gear past the 2nd level. Has no breakaway speed and can be caught from behind. Is a good inside runner but isn’t as strong when running outside the tackle.
Scheme Fit:
RB
Power Statement:
Anthony does some things well, but he lacks the top-end speed and explosiveness desired by NFL teams.
