NFL Draft Prep: RB Jordan Wilkins

Senior RB Jordan Wilkins has yet to break into the eye of the mainstream draft community and understandably so. He plays in a spread offense that is throw-first focused and is flanked by what may be the best wide receiver group in the country. The attention given to wideouts AJ. Brown and D.K. Metcalf leaves little spotlight for anyone else to grab. Throw in some Shea Patterson and only about 13…

Using Combine Stats to Predict RB Success: Part 1 via @_codygarrett

For years, fans and analysts have argued the validity of the NFL Draft Combine. How much does it really predict? Which drills matter the most? While these answers may vary, one thing certainly agreed upon by most; this is not an exact science. With that being said, I will attempt to narrow things down and give a bit more clarity to these drills and how they can help predict success at the next…

"In the Player Pit" with RB Aaron Jones, UTEP
