During his final collegiate season at Ohio State, RB Carlos Hyde was dominant.
The 6-0, 230 pound monster of a running back was a force in every way out of the backfield for the Buckeyes, amassing 1,521 rushing yards and scoring 15 touchdowns on the ground in 2013. Hyde also caught 16 passes and scored three more times though the air. He did this despite missing the team’s first three games due to a suspension.
That performance helped catapult Hyde up draft boards, as some experts saw him as the best back coming out that year.
