Black is a runway back that wins with speed, acceleration, and vision. He isn't a powerful back capable of pushing the pile or stiff-arming defenders into the dirt. Black has the raw speed to hit a crease and take it the distance. He can get into trouble quickly in the backfield if contacted early in a play. Black isn't a contact balance champ. He can be brought down with sufficient tackling technique. He's a linear runner without a ton of wiggle. Black can make defenders pay in the second-level, though, with a full head of steam as he'll run through some weak wraps or poor angles. Black was used sparingly as a receiver at Indiana, with only 12 targets in two seasons (48 receiving yards). He was decent (at best) in pass pro. He had only 64 pass blocking snaps over the last two years, in which he allowed three pressures and a sack.
