This guy gives high praise to Carter comparing him to MJD.

Delone Carter(notes), Ind (Noise RB Rank: 38)
Owners who mined Carter in the late rounds may have struck it rich. The Colts' future Clydesdale is the team's most complete back. Though he's faced many second and third-string defenses over the past three weeks, he's averaged a team-best 4.7 yards per carry, impressing head coach Jim Caldwell with his "forward lean." At 5-foot-9, 225-pounds, the rookie is a rolling rock of muscle. His stocky build and powerful low-to-the-ground running style is reminiscent of Maurice Jones-Drew(notes). Joseph Addai(notes) is the unquestioned lead back, but because the vet would break a leg wrestling a cloud — he's missed 12 games since 2008 — Carter has strong odds of becoming the lead horse at some point this year. Until then, expect him to net roughly 10-12 carries per game functioning as the short-yardage and goal-line specialist. Assuming Peyton Manning(notes) isn't sidelined for an extensive period of time, the 'Cuse product is prime shocker special material. Giddy up.
Fearless Forecast (16 games): 172 carries, 756 rushing yards, 14 receptions, 92 receiving yards, 7 rushing touchdowns
