On Saturday, the NFL Combine continues as the quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers wil take the field in Indianapolis. While most eyes will be on the Quarterbacks and Wide Receivers, this is a loaded running back class. This class is incredibly deep at running with superstars and plenty of players with star potential. When the running backs take the field, keep an eye on these sleeper running backs as their draft stock could fly through the rough with solid performances.
Brashard Smith
Last year the New York Giants struck gold with Wide Receiver turned Running Back Tyrone Tracy who burst onto the scene. The player that could fit that mold in this draft class is SMU running back Brashard Smith. Smith went from Wide Receiver to Running Back rushing for 1,332 yards and 14 touchdowns with a career high 327 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Smith was also requested to work out as a wide receiver which can only raise his stock as he shows what he can do out wide or in the slot.
Woody Marks
After four seasons at Mississippi State, Woody Marks transferred to USC where he smashed his career highs. Marks has flashed great acceleration which will lead to him testing very well which could raise his Draft Stock. In a loaded draft class it's tough to differentiate but, when you take into account that he'll get a better offensive line at the next level his USC stats are even more impressive.
Corey Kiner
While the combine will be filled with running backs from the biggest schools, Corey Kiner from Cincinnati is a player to watch in this cycle. Kiner finished fourth in College Football in forced missed tackles, and his ability to pick up speed and cut quickly will only flash at the combine. The biggest question is Kiner's ability as a receiver, and if he can dispel those concerns, he'll fly up the draft boards.
Raheim Sanders
They call Raheim Sanders "Rocket Sanders" for a reason as he can absolutely fly which will impress NFL Scouts at the Combine. While Sanders will test well his ability as both a rusher and a receiver is going to impress scouts and he'll become a player that flies up NFL Big Boards. Sanders had a great showing at the Senior Bowl and carrying it over will only boost his Draft stock.
Jaydon Blue
The NFL loves a running back that can be a productive piece as a receiver out of the backfield and Jaydon Blue fits the mold. Blue will impress during the onfield drills with his ability as a receiver along with his rushing ability. Add in the fact that Jaydon Blue said he thinks he'll beat the 40 Yard Dash record and he's one of the most must watch players we'll see this weekend.
