| Handed a first-day draft grade prior to his senior campaign, Darby watched his stock slip the past seven months. Could be a steal in the middle rounds if he gets his game back on track or he may be looking for a new line of work if he continues with erratic play. |
| Biography: |
Three-year starter awarded All-Conference honors after his
sophomore and junior campaigns. Senior rushing totals were 210/835/0
with 23/130/1 receiving. Career-best rushing totals of 239/1,242/3 and
receiving numbers of 29/132 came as a junior.
Pos:
Well-built ball carrier coming off a disappointing senior campaign.
Runs low to the ground, has a burst through the hole and displays
strength in his running. Quickly cuts back into the open lanes, weaves
through traffic and waits for blocks to develop. Works his runs,
getting as much yardage as possible. Solid receiver with adequate
hands.
Neg:
Does not show a lot of creativity in his running. Did not
consistently play smart football as a senior. Did too much East/West
dancing last season, rather than taking it up the field. Better
between the tackles and does not show the ability to cut the corner.
