2024 NFL Draft: Ranking 10 best running back prospects feat. Jonathon Brooks, Trey Benson and more
The first round 2024 NFL Draft is expected to be heavy on quarterbacks, wide receivers, and linemen on both sides of the ball. The Chicago Bears, Washington Commanders, and New England Patriots, in particular, are looking for a franchise passer with each of the top three picks.
This leaves running back, once a premier position in the NFL, short on depth. But that does not mean there is no one worth picking.
There are running backs who are worth picking, and here are the top 10 from them.
1) Trey Benson
Trey Benson was a key component of the Florida State Seminoles' unbeaten regular season, rushing for almost 1,000 yards and double-digit touchdowns. At 6'1" and 221 lbs, he is large enough to be a powerful three-down back and block during passing plays.
