It certainly looks that way.
My concern with Nate Peat is he hardly got any carries in college. Makes one wonder why?

It may be this simple. CODY SHRADER:
Weaknesses
Speed: Something mentioned in his strength as a North/South runner, Schrader doesn't have amazing top-end speed, his 40-yard dash clocked in at 4.61 seconds and Schrader also isn't very elusive. With this also some footwork could help his route running improve.
Age: Schrader spent four years at Truman State and two more at Missouri, so he will be 25 years old in September when the NFL regular season gets going. So he will be a fair amount older than a lot of his peers in the 2024 NFL draft.

HOWEVER:
4.61-second 40 YARD DASH TIME
In Indianapolis at the NFL Scouting Combine, which spanned Feb. 29-March 3, Schrader tweaked his hamstring running the 40-yard dash and ended up posting a
4.61-second time.
