The series continues with the 2019 running back class. Straight up, it’s not a good class. But let’s dig through the ones who have an NFL future, even if that means committee work only on their rookie contracts. If you read the 2019 NFL Draft WR Stats Report, then you understand the premise of this column, so skip ahead. But the purpose here is to provide context to a variety of statistics I used to rank these players solely based on their analytical profiles.
Things included in this evaluation: rushing and receiving production, rushing and receiving efficiency, offensive line play, strength of schedule, size, class, comparisons to teammates, and a ton more. It’s not every single thing we can evaluate, but it’s certainly a lot of it. The sources for this column include Bill Connelly’s S&P, College Football Reference, Pro Football Focus, and Expand the Boxscore. All of them are fantastic resources if you haven’t seen their products. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me on Twitter @HaydenWinks.
1. Trayveon Williams - Texas A&M - Junior - 5’9/200
Career Stats: 600 - 3,615 - 34 and 66 - 561 - 1
YPC Versus Team: +2.4 (7th)
Marginal Efficiency: 52.4% (13th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 6.8 (8th)
TD% Versus Team: +2.6% (8th)
Receiving Rank: 3rd

Trayveon Williams tested above average all across the board despite facing the third toughest strength of schedule. Williams averaged 2.4 more yards per carry than his teammates (7th) at Texas A&M, and he scored touchdowns at a higher rate (+2.6%) as well. The junior also maintained high efficiency (13th in Marginal Efficiency) while seeing 21 carries per game (8th). But it didn’t stop there. Williams was also effective as a receiver, averaging a respectable 7.1 yards on his 39 targets (69% catch rate). Overall, only Darrell Henderson had more total yards (2,038) and only Henderson and Devin Singletary scored more total touchdowns (19). There’s potential for three-down work with Williams -- he may be too small though -- but let’s see how he tests at the NFL Combine.
2. Darrell Henderson - Memphis - Junior - 5’9/200
Career Stats: 431 - 3,545 - 36 and 63 - 758 - 8
YPC Versus Team: +3.9 (1st)
Marginal Efficiency: 50.5% (19th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 12.2 (1st)
TD% Versus Team: +3.9% (4th)
Receiving Rank: 10th
Darrell Henderson was insanely good in 2018, but he finished just shy of No. 1 in part to a smaller workload and an easier schedule than Trayveon Williams. Henderson did come in first in a few metrics, however. The junior led in Rushing Yards (1,909), Rushing Yards Per Game (147), YPC (8.9), YPC Versus Team (+3.9), Non-Red Zone Yards (1,789), Non-Red Zone YPC (9.9), 8+ Yard Carry Percentage (33%), 20+ Yard Carry Percentage (12%), Non-Red Zone TDs (14), Non-Red Zone TD% (7.7%), TD% (10.3%), Rushing Touchdowns (22), Yards Per Target (12.8), Marginal Explosion as a Receiver (1.4), Total Yards (2,204), Yards Per Touch (9.3), Total Touchdowns (25), and Total TD% (10.5%). I bet you started skimming at the end of that list because it was so long. Anyways, Henderson has big-play ability as a runner and receiver, but he may be too light to be a bell-cow back. Even if that’s true, I’d still very much want Henderson on my team. Anywhere around the Round 2/3 turn is more than fine with me.
3. Devine Ozigbo - Nebraska - Senior - 5’11/219
Career Stats: 419 - 2,196 - 21 and 49 - 488 - 0
YPC Versus Team: +2.4 (6th)
Marginal Efficiency: 58.7% (4th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 6.6 (11th)
TD% Versus Team: +3.5% (6th)
Receiving Rank: 9th
Devine Ozigbo quietly had an awesome season, and it sounds like his stock is on the rise after a great week at Shrine practices. During the 2018 season, Ozigbo was one of the most efficient runners in our sample. The senior finished top-10 in YPC (3rd), YPC Versus Team (6th), TD% (7th), and TD% Versus Team (6th). Ozigbo also scored five touchdowns outside of the red zone (4.0 TD%), which were top-5 and indicate some explosion and athleticism. There are some workload concerns -- the most carries in a season was 155 -- but Ozigbo has the profile of a decent, all-around committee back if he can test well in a few weeks.
4. Dexter Williams - Notre Dame - Senior - 5’11/215
Career Stats: 257 - 1,636 - 20 and 22 - 162 - 2
YPC Versus Team: +2.6 (4th)
Marginal Efficiency: 44.9% (32nd)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 8.2 (2nd)
TD% Versus Team: +3.5% (5th)
Receiving Rank: 27th
Dexter Williams was a late-bloomer because of some injuries and disciplinary issues, but he got things under control in 2018. Williams tested above average in most of the categories I looked at, especially in the touchdown department. His Touchdown Rate and Touchdown Rate Versus Team were both top-10, and his 63% Team Share of Touchdowns was fourth in the sample. Williams is more than a touchdown scorer, however. The senior was above average picking up yards (6.3 YPC), and he did catch 16 passes, even if it was a struggle to get there (67% catch rate). I’m not sure what the NFL thinks of Williams since he has been suspended in college, but he looked like a solid complementary piece at the next level and would be a quality Day 3 prospect.
5. Josh Jacobs - Alabama - Junior - 5’10/216
Career Stats: 251 - 1,491 - 16 and 48 - 571 - 5
YPC Versus Team: +0.1 (36th)
Marginal Efficiency: 21.5% (2nd)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 9.5 (5th)
TD% Versus Team: +4.3 (1st)
Receiving Rank: 1st
Don’t let the red in his snapshot fool you. Josh Jacobs is a legit RB1 candidate, and the efficiency and receiving stats show that. The reason why his profile looks red is because of how he as used at Alabama. Jacobs was never deployed as a bell-cow back because of the talent (Damien Harris and Najee Harris) around him. Instead, Jacobs made the most of his 10 touches per game. As a rusher, Jacobs was third in touchdown rate, but he was first in TD% Versus Team after beating his teammates in touchdown rate by 4.3%. He did so by scoring touchdowns on 10-of-39 red zone carries (25.6%).The three-star high school recruit finished third in percentage of carries over eight yards (28%) and seventh in 20+ yard percentage (6%), so the explosion is there. Jacobs also was extremely efficient as a receiver, finishing top-five in YPT (5th), TD% (3rd), and Marginal Efficiency (2nd). Expected to help his case at the NFL Combine, Jacobs is fine with me as the best running back prospect in the class, and I’d select him with a second-round pick.
6. Darwin Thompson - Utah State - Junior - 5’8/200
Career Stats: 153 - 1,044 - 14 and 23 - 351 - 2
YPC Versus Team: +1.8 (12th)
Marginal Efficiency: 54.9% (8th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 7.5 (5th)
TD% Versus Team: +2.3% (10th)
Receiving Rank: 30th
Darwin Thompson has been compared to Tarik Cohen for their impressive athleticism, and that athleticism showed up in his production and efficiency. Thompson averaged 8.2 yards per carry outside of the red zone and finished 4th in non-red zone touchdown percentage (4.4%). Both of those metrics indicate explosion, which we should see at the NFL Combine. But what is intriguing to me is his upside as a receiver. His 11.7 yards per target only trailed Darrell Henderson, and he finished top-5 in Marginal Efficiency and Marginal Explosion as a receiver. While he’s likely too small for three-down work, Thompson could be an attractive committee back in today’s NFL…. similar to Tarik Cohen.
7. Darrin Hall - Pittsburgh - Senior - 5’11/225
Career Stats: 381 - 2,189 - 21 and 38 - 267 - 1
YPC Versus Team: +2.6 (5th)
Marginal Efficiency: 56.2% (7th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 8.0 (3rd)
TD% Versus Team: +1.9% (12th)
Receiving Rank: 19th
Darrin Hall was a very efficient runner for Pittsburgh serving as the 1B to Qadree Ollison’s 1A. Despite being listed at 225 pounds, Hall was able to average 8.2 yards on his 113 non-red zone carries, which was third on the list. Hall also showed well in YPC Versus Team (5th), Marginal Efficiency (7th), and Hlt Yards Per Opportunity (3rd). Despite all this, I’m struggling to see a lot of upside since he was terrible as a receiver, but that doesn’t mean he can’t get early-down carries in the NFL.
8. Kerrith Whyte - Florida Atlantic - Junior - 5’10/200
Career Stats: 232 - 1,358 - 11 and 22 - 227 - 2
YPC Versus Team: +1.8 (13th)
Marginal Efficiency: 56.7% (5th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 6.4 (13th)
TD% Versus Team: -0.2% (28th)
Receiving Rank: 16th
Kerrith Whyte tested well in the efficiency metrics, especially as a receiver, but he isn’t a top-10 running back prospect. Whyte got the benefit of coming in after Devin Singletary -- one of my favorite runners in the class -- bulldozed his way over defenders, and those dark green parts of his snapshot are the product of small sample variance. Unless there’s great testing results at his workouts, then I think we can move on and focus on players with bigger roles on better teams.
9. Damien Harris - Alabama - Senior - 5’11/215
Career Stats: 477 - 3,070 - 23 and 52 - 407 - 2
YPC Versus Team: +0.8 (26th)
Marginal Efficiency: 52.7% (11th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 5.4 (20th)
TD% Versus Team: +0.3% (24th)
Receiving Rank: 4th
Damien Harris has a lot of things going for him that weren’t accounted for in the model (leadership, pass-protection, playing at Alabama, etc.), but he still nearly cracked the top-10 purely based on his analytical profile. That’s a win for him since he was dinged for playing in a committee. But we are all smart enough to not actually knock him for that. Harris is a decent runner (7.0 YPC on non-red zone carries, 6th) and can be used near the goal line (eight red zone touchdowns). But Harris also has underrated receiving ability, highlighted by his 16.3% Marginal Efficiency (4th), 8.0 yards per target (9th), and 80% catch rate (11th). Harris can be used in a bell-cow role if need be, even if he’s not as explosive -- the NFL Combine could change that stance -- as some of today’s bell-cow RBs.
10. Qadree Ollison - Pittsburgh - Senior - 6’2/225
Career Stats: 529 - 2,859 - 29 and 50 - 375 - 3
YPC Versus Team: +1.1 (23rd)
Marginal Efficiency: 45.4% (30th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 7.9 (4th)
TD% Versus Team: +0.8% (19th)
Receiving Rank: 23rd
Qadree Ollison is the second Pitt running back to crack the first page, and like Darrin Hall, Ollison was a slightly above average runner but really struggled as a receiver (3.9 YPT). Evaluating Ollison’s running profile is interesting because he was a decent back inside the red zone, but the team opted to use Darrin Hall more in those situations. Instead, Ollison was the primary runner between the 20s, and he ended with a 6.6 YPC on non-red zone carries (16th). A player who doesn’t appear to excel in any particular situation, Ollison needs a good NFL Combine for him to be more than a depth runner in my eyes, but he was productive enough to crack a 53-man roster.

11. D.J. Knox - Purdue - Senior - 5’7/210
Career Stats: 355 - 1,853 - 12 and 68 - 507 - 3
YPC Versus Team: +1.9 (11th)
Marginal Efficiency: 44.0% (36th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 6.9 (7th)
TD% Versus Team: +0.4% (22nd)
Receiving Rank: 6th
D.J. Knox doesn’t pop anywhere, but he was an okay receiver, which is arguably the most important aspect of a running backs evaluation in today’s NFL. Knox caught 27-of-31 targets (87%), but he wasn’t explosive with the ball in his hands (5.8 YPT). That’s interesting because he scored four 20+ yard touchdowns (tied for 7th) and averaged 1.9 more yards than his teammates at Purdue -- two metrics that show he is decent at picking up yards. Overall, there’s not a whole lot to love, so let’s continue moving forward.
12. David Montgomery - Iowa State - Junior - 5’11/216
Career Stats: 624 - 2,925 - 26 and 71 - 582 - 0
YPC Versus Team: +2.4 (6th)
Marginal Efficiency: 47.9% (26th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 4.3 (34th)
TD% Versus Team: +1.9% (11th)
Receiving Rank: 10th
David Montgomery’s yardage numbers are really bad, but there’s at least one quality explanation -- his offensive line, which is factored into these rankings. Iowa State was 101st in my OL rushing metric and that fits with what #FilmGrinders have been saying about the Cyclones’ line. One way to factor some of the OL play out is by comparing his YPC and TD% to his teammates. And not surprisingly, Montgomery finished top-11 in both categories. The highly-touted back was also amazing when the field shrinks. Inside the 20, Montgomery scored 13 touchdowns (5th) because of high-end broken tackle numbers. It shouldn’t be surprising to see Montgomery win in short-yardage situations in the NFL. But there’s one thing that has kept me a little skeptical of viewing Montgomery as a high-quality RB prospect, and that is his non-red zone production. Montgomery didn’t score a single touchdown outside of the red zone despite seeing 202 carries! The only other player in the sample who didn’t have a 20-yard touchdown in the sample is Missouri’s Damarea Crockett, but he only had 121 non-red zone carries and people would laugh at comparing Crockett to Montgomery. It’s a sign that Montgomery doesn’t have break-away speed, and his 5.1 YPC average (33rd) further shows that. Overall, Montgomery is a tough prospect to evaluate because he was really good at breaking tackles and scoring touchdowns in the red-zone, but I have my concerns. However, a ton of those concerns can be wiped away with a good 40-yard dash and broad jump at the NFL Combine. For now, I don’t think Montgomery is a great running back prospect and is more of a Day 2 player.
13. Alex Barnes - Kansas State - Junior - 6’1/225
Career Stats: 458 - 2,616 - 25 and 25 - 223 - 0
YPC Versus Team: +2.0 (10th)
Marginal Efficiency: 49.6% (20th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 5.0 (26th)
TD% Versus Team: +1.3% (14th)
Receiving Rank: 13th
Alex Barnes grinded his way inside the top-15 because of his production, not efficiency. Some of the poor YPC numbers can be attributed to his surroundings, however. Barnes averaged 2.0 more yards per carry than his teammates, and he scored touchdowns at a higher rate as well. Basically, this is a less extreme version of David Montgomery, except Barnes finished with four 20-yard touchdowns compared to Montgomery’s 0. As a receiver, Barnes was average across the board (minus the touchdowns), so Barnes looks like a versatile backup back, but that’s subject to change with the NFL Combine a few weeks away.
14. Khari Blasingame - Vanderbilt - Senior - 6’1/230
Career Stats: 238 - 997 - 15 and 35 - 380 - 2
YPC Versus Team: -1.1 (40th)
Marginal Efficiency: 39.6% (40th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 4.8 (29th)
TD% Versus Team: +0.1% (25th)
Receiving Rank: 2nd
Khari Blasingame was way higher on the list than expected, and that’s only because of the weight I put on receiving. Blasingame was near the bottom of every rushing metric possible, but he was inside the top-10 in targets (6th), receptions (6th), receiving yards (3rd), yards per target (4th), and Marginal Explosion (4th). However, if he doesn’t have strong Combine results, then I’m out on Blasingame as a legit passing-down back.
15. James Williams - Washington State - Junior - 6’0/205
Career Stats: 316 - 1,543 - 19 and 202 - 1,437 - 4
YPC Versus Team: +1.6 (17th)
Marginal Efficiency: 48.4% (24th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 3.5 (39th)
TD% Versus Team: +2.5% (9th)
Receiving Rank: 5th
James Williams did two things really well at Washington State, and that’s win as a receiver and win in short-yardage situations. In my opinion, those are the two most important things for running backs. Williams led this year’s class in targets (93), receptions (83), receiving yards (613), and receiving touchdowns (4) and graded well in YPT (4th) and Marginal Explosion (4th) as well. What will surprise people is his short-yardage success. According to Expand The Boxscore, Williams got a first down on 70% of his 40 “___-and-short” touches. It’s a unique role to play -- Williams is one of three FBS players to have 100+ carries and 80+ receptions since 2000 -- but Williams is ideal fit for pass-heavy NFL teams as a plus-receiver and good-enough runner. I’m just hoping he goes to the right team to make it happen.
16. Benny Snell Jr. - Kentucky - Junior - 5’11/223
Career Stats: 737 - 3,873 - 48 and 29 - 216 - 0
YPC Versus Team: +0.2 (35th)
Marginal Efficiency: 50.9% (17th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 4.1 (35th)
TD% Versus Team: +0.9% (18th)
Receiving Rank: 13th
Benny Snell Jr. was a workhorse at Kentucky, but he wasn’t overly efficient. Of course, it’s much harder to be efficient when you get 22 carries per game, especially in the SEC as clearly the best offensive player on the team. Even if his per-touch yardage numbers ended up being below average, Snell was slightly above average at scoring. Snell had four 20-yard touchdowns (tied for 7th) and scored touchdowns on 12-of-59 red zone carries for a 20.3% TD rate (16th). Ultimately, Snell looks like a decent backup or committee option in the NFL thanks to big rushing production in the SEC. If he tests well at the NFL Combine, Snell could end up profiling as a low-end starter.
17. Reggie Gallaspy II - NC State - Senior - 5’11/235
Career Stats: 459 - 2,155 - 31 and 30 - 138 - 1
YPC Versus Team: +1.8 (14th)
Marginal Efficiency: 43.0% (37th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 5.4 (23rd)
TD% Versus Team: +4.3% (2nd)
Receiving Rank: 38th
Reggie Gallaspy II was an elite touchdown scorer, and that shouldn’t be too surprising if you saw his 5-foot-11, 235-pound frame. Gallaspy scored the second most red zone touchdowns (17) in the sample, and 16-of-17 came on “goal-to-go” carries. That goal line production resulted in a high-end 7.9% TD rate, which was 4.3% better than his teammates (2nd largest difference). Gallaspy doesn’t offer much outside of bull dozing in short-yardage, so he’s just a specialist.
18. Alexander Mattison - Boise State - Junior - 5’11/211
Career Stats: 581 - 2,829 - 33 and 60 - 511 - 1
YPC Versus Team: +1.2 (22nd)
Marginal Efficiency: 48.7% (23rd)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 3.9 (36th)
TD% Versus Team: +2.7% (7th)
Receiving Rank: 18th
Alexander Mattison and Benny Snell have similar profiles if we are ignoring quality of opponent. Both were highly productive, but not impressive on a per-touch basis. For Mattison, there weren’t too many explosive plays -- only 2% of his carries went for at least 20 yards -- but he made it count in short-yardage situations. As a receiver, Mattison was involved (27 receptions), but he only averaged 5.2 yards per target. Mattison is best viewed as a backup, unless he has a big day at the NFL Combine.
19. Devin Singletary - Florida Atlantic - Junior - 5’9/200
Career Stats: 714 - 4,287 - 66 and 51 - 397 - 1
YPC Versus Team: +0.1 (37th)
Marginal Efficiency: 45.4% (31st)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 6.0 (14th)
TD% Versus Team: +4.2% (3rd)
Receiving Rank: 38th
Devin Singletary was inside the top-10 if I took the receiving aspect out of the equation. That’s very important to distinguish because Singletary wasn’t used as a receiver in 2018, but he had two seasons with at least 19 receptions prior. It would be short-sided if we didn’t think Singletary could catch passes in the NFL, but that’s not where he’s going to make his money. Instead, Singletary offers plus rushing ability, especially inside the red zone. Singletary scored on 23.1% (10th) of his 78 red zone carries and finished with the most red zone touchdowns (18). Outside of the red zone, Singletary was just average (5.9 yards per carry), but he had a huge workload and was clearly the player opposing defenses needed to stop. Despite the low ranking, I’m bullish on Singletary as a runner, and I’m not going to bet against him as a receiver either. He’s one of the best running back prospects in the class, and he should be taken somewhere around the Round 2/3 borderline.
20. A.J. Ouellette - Ohio - Senior - 5’10/209
Career Stats: 719 - 3,829 - 32 and 64 - 516 - 6
YPC Versus Team: +0.1 (38th)
Marginal Efficiency: 56.3% (6th)
Hlt Yards Per Opportunity: 5.5 (18th)
TD% Versus Team: -2.6% (38th)
Receiving Rank: 32nd
If you are reading the A.J. Ouellette description right now, I respect your hustle. Ouellette is a low-end prospect with a decent 6.1 YPC average, but that’s only 0.1 yards better than his teammates (38th). He was an efficient receiver though, but Ouellette will need to have a good NFL Combine if he’s going to get opportunities as a running back on Sundays.
