2015 NFL Draft Profile: Tevin Coleman, RB Indiana

Indiana running back Tevin Coleman is a physical runner that isn’t afraid to lower his shoulder to try to pick up a couple extra yards.  He’s a feature type of running back, but sadly that kind of mentality is being phased out in the NFL.  However, teams should be very comfortable adding Coleman to their stable of running backs and using another back as a change of pace type runner.

Some of his best traits are those that get overlooked.  He’s a very good receiver out of the backfield and can compose himself quickly after the catch to move the ball up the field.
