NFL teams have soured on taking running backs early in drafts, but Texas star Bijan Robinson could change that trend.
ESPN's Jordan Reid reported Robinson is "getting top-15 buzz" as one of the top prospects in years at the position.
"Many scouts believe that Robinson is the best overall running back prospect since Saquon Barkley," Reid reported.
Barkley was the last running back taken among the first 15 picks, going No. 2 overall in 2018 out of Penn State. The New York Giants star made an immediate impact with 15 touchdowns and an NFL-best 2,028 yards from scrimmage as a rookie, although injuries have slowed him down since.
