2024 Rush/Rec Projections
Entering 2019 NFL Draft
Anderson (knee) announced Thursday via his personal Twitter account that he will enter the 2019 NFL Draft.
ANALYSIS
A redshirt junior, Anderson suffered a season-ending knee injury after a blistering start to the campaign. He took 11 carries for 119 yards and three scores in just over one game's worth of action in 2018 and finished his 2017 campaign with 1,161 yards and 13 touchdowns. Anderson's talent is not in question, but his lengthy injury history will be heavily scrutinized in the pre-draft process.

2018 Fantasy Outlook
Baker Mayfield's departure means the running game might be more featured in Norman this year. Kyler Murray and a deep stable of backs will absorb carries, but it's easy to forget that OU had a 55:45 Run:Pass split last year. That means there's enough carries to go around and still make Anderson a fantasy force. Anderson needed just 188 carries to get 1,161 yards and 13 scores last year--and he only saw 12 carries in the first five weeks. Extrapolate his average workload down the stretch (19.5 Att/Gm) and we get 1,502 yards and 16 TD. That'll play.
