The 2018 draft features several intriguing Day 2 running backs with players like Nick Chubb and Sony Michel of Georgia, Derrius Guice of LSU, Kerryon Johnson of Auburn, Bryce Love of Stanford, and
Rashaad Penny of San Diego State.
Not exact matches
Washington is more in the mold
of Donnel Pumphrey, who led the nation with 2,133 yards in 2016 and entered the draft standing 5» 8» and 176 pounds, than the 220 - pound
Rashaad Penny.
But one thing that I would find more enlightening than a mock would be a discussion
of what the big board looks like that underpins this draft — the prioritization
of players both by position (G, S, ILB, etc.) and by draft position (Hernandez ranked higher than
Rashaad Penny, for example).
As far as John Kelly here's some
of the remaining backs ahead
of him:
Rashaad Penny, Kalen Ballage, Mark Walton, Nyhem Hines, Akrum Wadley
the other guys i love are: - Kallen Ballage (Arizona State)-- literally equal measurables as Barkley - Bo Scarborough (Alabama)-- again, same size as both Ballage & Barkley, tho slower & more
of a downhill runner -
Rashaad Penny (San Diego St.)-- good size for a smaller back, breakaway speed, super productive, heisman candidate - Royce Freeman (Oregon)-- same size as
Penny, very productive in college
One
of those is San Diego State's
Rashaad Penny.
Barkley to the Browns is not a forgone conclusion, especially with this draft class
of studded RBs like Kerryon Johnson, Sony Michel, Ronald Jones, or
Rashaad Penny as possible targets for Dorsey.
Among these 20, only two players are within 180 yards
of Barkley's combined production: SDSU's
Rashaad Penny and Stanford's Bryce Love.
This is hardly a complete list, but options might include San Diego State's
Rashaad Penny [prospect profile], Nick Chubb and Sony Michel
of Georgia, Ronald Jones II
of USC and Kerryon Johnson
of Auburn.
