An NFL scout tells Matt Miller of B/R that while his team won’t be drafting Oklahoma RB Joe Mixon, he believes Mixon is in the same category as Ezekiel Elliott and David Johnson as a player.
“We can’t draft him [because of the assault charge], but he’ll be the best running back from this class,” the scout said. “He’s on par with Zeke [Elliott] and David Johnson.”
