Job-share running back with size and speed to create yards for himself on the collegiate level. A hot September created some buzz, but he wasn't able to recapture that magic beyond that month. Anderson benefited from massive running lanes created by stretch plays, but displayed enough burst and contact power to turn an eight-yard gain into 18. He looks for clear points of entry and isn't as instinctive at setting up blocks and anticipating run lanes as he needs to be. The height, weight, speed totals will generate interest but finding an early roster spot could be a challenge.
When going through a scouting checklist for running backs, Olonilua fails to gain check marks in several categories, but he's still an alluring prospect with a unique combination of size, speed and an ability to create favorable angles despite a lack of elusive in short spaces. He's a better runner outside than he is inside, but that must change in the pros. If he can trim down to improve his burst and give a more determined effort in pass protection, he might be able to find work as a RB3/RB4.
