Personally I would look to draft a back in the mid rounds depending on how the draft shakes out. I like DOnta Foreman from Texas. He is a big back over 240 pounds, he doesn't have very good top end speed on films, but he hits top gear within the first 5 yards of the LOS. He has good vision, in fact he reminds me a lot of Eddie Lacy. Hopefully he keeps his diet in check.

Also Samaje Perine from Oklahoma is also a bigger back (235) that has a better top end speed than Foreman, he is a very strong runner looking to deliver a blow to tacklers. He has some fancy balance and changes levels well, although he runs high at times.
I saw more of Perine and agree he'd be a nice mid round back to get.
