The NFL Draft Combine has officially concluded and there were a ton of prospects that participated. There are a lot of players that raised their stocks at the combine. For the next few days, every position will be looked at and there will be three players that will be ranked as the highest risers. The next position will be at Running Back.
If there is one running back that is starting to grow on many scouts and analysts, it would be Quinshon Judkins. He was already rising in the draft process, but his Combine performance made him rise higher. He has the speed, running a 4.48-second time at the 40-yard dash and a 1.51-second 10-yard split. His broad jump was the highest in the running back class at 11 feet, which wowed many. The athletic drills were great and there is a good chance he is the 2nd running back that gets drafted.
Omarion Hampton has a few question marks with his play, but man did he impress in his Combine performance. He ran a smooth 4.46 second 40-yard dash time at the combine and got a 1.54 10-yard split. Another impressive athletic trait with Hampton is his jumping and flexibility. He had a 38-inch vertical jump and a 10’10” broad jump. That broad jump was the 2nd best at the combine. It’s clear that Hampton has the speed and flexibility to have a great career in the NFL and his potential can’t be ignored.
Every year at the Combine, there is always one participant who is an unknown, but they stand out. This year it is Bayshul Tuten, who is a player that many have not talked about. He woke people up, as he showcased his athleticism throughout every drill he ran. This kid is fast, as he ran a 4.32 second 40-yard dash time and a 1.49 10-yard split time. Both times were the fastest from the entire running back class. Even in the drills he impressed recording the best vertical jump 40.5 and the 2nd best in the broad jump (10″10”) for running backs. Keep in mind too he is 5’9” tall which makes him look more impressive. This was a huge day for him and raised his draft stock.
