Biography:
The San Diego Chargers signed Eldra Buckley as an undrafted free agent in 2007.

Junior college transfer awarded All-Conference honors the past two years. Senior rushing totals included 215/1,204/7 when he also added 18 receptions. Junior numbers included 217/1,233/11 on the ground.

Pos:

Undersized ball carrier who consistently breaks games open. Runs with excellent balance, body control and has a burst of speed. Switches it on through the hole and easily runs to daylight if given a small amount of open space. Shifts gears anywhere on the field, does an outstanding job using his blocks and shows the ability to quickly cut back without losing any momentum. Strong for his size, has defenders bouncing off him and rarely goes down on the first hit. Weaves through the traffic on the inside and finds the open spot in the defense. Picks up blitzes as a blocker.

Neg:

Does not have the body to take a consistent pounding at the next level. Marginal pass catcher out of the backfield. Timed poorly at the combine.
