Which Draft-Hopeful Running Backs Produced Like NFL Studs in College?

There's a lot of randomness to the NFL Draft. It's hard -- basically impossible -- to beat it consistently.

I mean, think of it this way: if we know Toad and Yoshi win all the time in Mario Kart 64, then why would we select Bowser as our racing character?

If we know the vast majority of successful NFL running backs shared similar achievements within certain metrics at the college level, then why would we ignore it?

The main goal here is to look at successful NFL running backs and see if they shared similar production characteristics in college.
