Darren McFadden
    
      RB- Arkansas (Jr.)     
 
      
 Ht: 6'2 Weight: 212
   
 
        

Strengths: McFadden has speed that can change the outcome of a game, every time he's handed the ball.  He makes very decisive cuts and runs with authority.  Playing against top SEC talent, McFadden was able to put up outstanding numbers week after week. He can also returns kicks, and the HB pass could become a standard threat to all opposing NFL defenses, as McFadden frequently lined up at the QB position, and threw the ball with success.

Weaknesses: McFadden has a very slender build for a RB, which can lead to many lower body injuries. Doesn't posses an elite level of agility, and his flexibility and change of direction are just above average.  

Compares to: Ryan Grant (Packers)

 
      
 Projected Round: 1st
    
           
           
         
 Scouted by: C.A. Hunter
