This is a timestamped receipt of where my head is at on these rookie running backs at a moment in time. Before we learn what the NFL is willing to invest in them and where they will play their professional ball.

Tyler Allgeier is part of the Zack Moss-David Montgomery family tree: a big, efficient, tackle-breaking machine with some semblance of three-down ability. It wouldn’t shock me to see him never quite put it together, or to see him give us a year or two of quality production as a short-term lead back.

ZaQuandre White is probably the weirdest running back in this class. If everything shakes out right, he’s a good athlete with good size and a history of both high-end production and efficient play. There are much worse bets to make in rookie drafts, even if his floor is lower than most.
