Earlier this week, Pro Football Focus released their ranking for the top 32 running backs entering the 2021 NFL season and three former Wisconsin RBs were able to make the cut.

Current New England RB and former Badger, James White, was ranked at No. 29, while Indianapolis RB Jonathan Taylor and Denver RB Melvin Gordon were ranked at No. 16 and No. 17 on the list.
It is surprising to see Jonathan Taylor all the way down at No. 16, especially after his dominant play to finish his rookie season with the Colts. However, it is still outstanding to see three former Badgers making such an impact for their teams at the next level.
