2. Otis Anderson Jr., RB, UCF

Otis Anderson Jr. is going to be a stud in the NFL someday. You can already see the potential oozing from his every move on the football field.

Anderson is the son of former New York Giants and Saint Louis Cardinals star running back, Ottis Anderson, who put together a 14-year NFL career and won a Super Bowl as the starting running back with the Giants. While Junior is a good bit smaller than his dad, he is more versatile and that’s what puts him on this list.

Anderson Jr is so explosive. His greatest strength is his home run ability, and he’s scored 25 touchdowns thus far in his career — 15 rushing, nine receiving and one on a punt return. The stat that pops off the screen — Anderson’s 7.4 yards per touch average.

Anderson should see a good career in the NFL himself, maybe not as long as his fathers, but a successful one nonetheless.
