Quinshon Judkins

[Pass2Run]

I look at this guy and ask why he isn't in the same conversation as Jeanty. He's going to be a great NFL player.




I also like this Devin Neal kid in later rounds...

Big fan of Judkin’s too. So many good backs this year.

I don't know if he belongs in the same conversation but I think I prefer him over Henderson and Johnson as the third back behind Jeanty and Hampton. I think he could have a Derrick Henry-type impact. Of course, he's not as big as Henry.

Good RB, character issues may come out later in the process.

This is the best argument out there to avoid RB round 1....there will be really good players available at the position round 2. My only concern with Judkins is that he may end up a pretty exclusive north/south power runner at the next level. Not sure he cuts well enough to beat NFL caliber LBs on a regular basis, nor does he really have that open field burst to for those home run carries. Judkins is probably the closest thing I've seen to Marion Barber, which isnt a bad thing at all, but I think he is more of a Rico Dowdle replacement than a Rico complementary piece. I think you would still need to find that big play slasher type of RB to pair with him.

Beast. As a true freshman he was within a hair of beating Hershel Walker’s freshman SEC record. Let that sink in.

 

[Carson]

My favorite back in the draft. Hell, I’d draft both Ohio state backs

(1) WR Golden
(2) RB Judkins
(3) Best MLB or DT

 

[Creeper]

Not in the first 2 rounds. I would look for Devin Neal later. There are too many good RBs this year to reach for one early.

 

[Risen Star]

Probably because he's playing second fiddle to his teammate who averaged over a yard and a half more a carry in about the same number of carries.

Agree. I wouldn't be upset if we had a back like Neal. He's bigger but super shifty .he has a little Demarco Murray, Dorsett, and dare I say Joseph Randle to his game...

That would pair well with Rico.

Are you sure you want to be comparing possible picks to Joseph Randle

 

[RonWashington]

Defense rounds one & two wait until round three grab Sampson out of TN …speed can catch out of the backfield plus bring Dowdle back as the between tackles hammer one two punch . Need two backs in this offense .

An effective run game makes 4 a better QB .

Quinshon Judkins (6'0", 219 lbs) is a tough runner, but he's too stiff, has no wiggle to his moves and only has average speed (4.49). He's an identical replica of Zeke. Runs straight towards contact because of his lack of cutting ability and lack of lateral agility. He would wear down big time in the NFL by the end of his 4th year as a starter.

I would rather take another tough runner but with excellent cutting ability, much better wiggle to his hips, and nice mix of power and breakaway speed like Bhayshul Tuten (5'9", 211 lbs, 4.32 40 time) who would be available in the 3rd round+.

 

[beware_d-ware]

Jeanty is quicker than Judkins, and has superpower-type contact balance. I think Jeanty's a clear-cut tier ahead as a prospect.

I'd project Judkins as a David Montgomery, Najee Harris type of power back. He's strong as all hell, sees the game well, and looks pretty good as a receiver, so I think he's got a high floor. But his hips look REALLY tight, and I don't think he has NFL level breakaway speed. He'll be a low YPC grinder, because he can't rip off the chunk runs to boost his averages.

I think he'll be a successful pro and will earn some good money, but I don't think he'll be anywhere close to Jeanty.

 

[Cowboyny]

A ton of good RB prospects in this year's class. However, when does the run start? Will we be forced to overdraft or risk taking a late RB that doesn't make much of an impact?

he's a 1 cut Demarco Murray runner. I think you will see him best in a zone running game. but his contact balance and way he bounces off people like a pin ball is 2nd to jentry

Like the kid from Oklahoma St. also, could be the guy they get in the 5th or a move up to in the 4th.
