The Ohio State Buckeyes will have a plethora of players in the 2020 NFL Draft, and junior star running back J.K. Dobbins will definitely be one of them taken early.
Having an all-time great year for an Ohio State running back, Dobbins numbers didn’t even scratch the surface in the bulk of games given the team’s absolute dominance.
Undefeated in the regular season, Dobbins totaled 2,250 all-purpose yards. With over 2,000 on the ground, Dobbins was an absolute unit, running over the bulk of Big Ten teams oftentimes snagging three digits worth of yards in the first half.
He’s still not projected to be a Day one pick. Jonathan Taylor from Wisconsin and D’Andre Swift from Georgia are the only running backs projected to potentially go before him, and they too may not go in the first round.
