2009 NFL Draft: Running Backs

QB | RB | FB | WR | TE | OT | OG | OC | DT | DE | OLB | ILB | CB | FS | SS | All Rankings

1. Knowshon Moreno | 511, 208 pounds | Georgia

A dynamic running back with exemplary playing speed and agility. Moreno has special ability on game days, but may slide some after a sub-par Combine.

Scouting Report

2. Chris Wells6'1, 237 pounds | Ohio State

When healthy, Wells is clearly the best NFL-style running back in the draft. However, he always seems to have lingering injuries that limit his play.

Scouting Report

3. LeSean McCoy | 5'11, 210 pounds | Pittsburgh

McCoy is a shifty and strong running back. Although he maybe should have returned for his senior year, he can start in the NFL immediately.

Scouting Report 

4.  Shonn Greene | 5'11, 235 pounds | Iowa

Greene is a pure power back who can handle a lot of carries. He can convert first downs with ease and easily breaks tackles from linebackers.
