1. Ohio State image TreVeyon Henderson, RB, Ohio State
Height: 5-10. Weight: 214.
Projected 40 Time: 4.50.
Projected Round (2025): 1-3.

7/17/23: Henderson put together an impressive freshman year in 2021 and was too talented to keep on the bench behind more experienced upperclassmen. He averaged 6.8 yards per carry that season for 1,248 yards and 15 touchdowns on only 183 carries. Henderson also was an impressive receiving back, snatching 27 passes for 312 yards and four scores. Before getting injured in 2022, he averaged 5.3 yards per carry for 571 yards and six touchdowns. With his impressive skill set, Henderson (5-10, 214) has upside to explode at some point.



2. Michigan image Donovan Edwards, RB, Michigan
Height: 6-1. Weight: 204.
Projected 40 Time: 4.50.
Projected Round (2025): 1-3.

7/17/23: Edwards was the backup to Blake Corum in 2022, but Edwards was superb to close out the year, showing a real combination of size and speed. He was phenomenal in the games against Ohio State (22-216-2), Purdue (25-185-1) and TCU (23-119). Edwards has quality size and impressive speed.



3. Florida image Trevor Etienne*, RB, Florida
Height: 5-9. Weight: 217.
Projected 40 Time: 4.49.
Projected Round (2025): 1-3.

7/17/23: Etienne played really well as a freshman and produced for the Gators despite not getting a big work load. He averaged 6.1 yards per carry on 118 carries for 719 yards and six touchdowns. He also had nine catches for 66 yards. Etienne is a physical runner with strong build and quickness. With Montrell Johnson, Etienne will continue to split carries, but that will cut down on wear-and-tear and reduce injury risk.



4. Georgia image Kendall Milton, RB, Georgia
Height: 6-1. Weight: 220.
Projected 40 Time: 4.55.
Projected Round (2025): 2-3.

7/17/23: In 2022, Milton averaged 7.0 yards per carry for 592 yards and eight touchdowns. He had five receptions for 64 yards and a touchdown as well. Milton flashed serious ability in 2020, averaging 5.5 yards per carry for 193 yards. In 2021, Milton was behind Zamir White and James Cook. Milton averaged 4.7 yards per carry for 264 yards and one touchdown on the year. He is big, quick, and full of potential.



5. Clemson image Will Shipley, RB, Clemson
Height: 5-11. Weight: 205.
Projected 40 Time: 4.48.
Projected Round (2025): 2-3.

7/17/23: Shipley is a shifty runner and good receiver for Clemson. In 2022, he averaged 5.6 yards per carry for 1,182 yards and 15 touchdowns. He also caught 38 passes for 242 yards. As a freshman in 2021, he ran for 739 yards and 11 touchdowns. Shipley could stand to add a little more bulk for the NFL.

Projected Round (2025): 2-4.
