2025 NFL Free Agency and Draft: RB

I thought if he came in under 5-9 it could drop him a bit. He's still RB1 by a mile IMO, but I wonder if this takes a little shine off. 

Ashton Jeanty
5084
211
9 1/4 hand
29 1/4 arm
72 3/4 wing

Savion Williams has 10 ¼” hands and stands 6’4”, 222lbs.

Easy to see why he has the best contested catch ability in the class. pic.twitter.com/dOh7Du71O1

About what most of us saw on tape. 

Judkins 4.48 at 221 pounds is a nice time

Omarion Hampton is a RB prospect in the 2025 draft class. He scored an unofficial 9.93 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 14 out of 1909 RB from 1987 to 2025.

Exactly. Thor Nystrom and a few others have been touting Johnson as RB2 and a 4.43 guy. I don't know how you can watch 5 minutes of his clips and say that. I thought he'd be 4.53 at best. He's even slower than that.

Fastest top speeds during RB 40-yard dashes:

Rocket Sanders: 23.55mph
TreVeyon Henderson: 23.38mph
Brashard Smith: 23.37mph
Jaydon Blue: 23.19mph
RJ Harvey: 23.07mph
Bhayshul Tuten: 22.86mph
Jarquez Hunter: 22.79mph
Omarion Hampton: 22.70mph
Montrell Johnson: 22.65mph

I think the 5-8 will help Harvey a bit since he's been listed before as 5-7.

Glad I didn’t prop bet him at sub 4.4. Mildly disappointed.

Are you betting on these? I didn't even know that was a thing until about a week ago. 4.41 ain't slow tho. Still love the guy after the buckeyes and ahead of Kaleb Johnson.

Underrated back here IMO. Catches the ball like a WR. 

LeQuint Allen looked arguably the best among all RBs during drills. Smooth, quick feet.

Naw. Really should have placed some props.

I had no idea this information was out there, but this intel is AWESOME from NextGenStats on https://t.co/YM08EyKo1B

It's refreshing to see this many RB UNITs running this fast when it's a relatively weaker WR class.

One of about a half dozen backs we aren’t really talking about. Just nuts. This class is freaking insane.

Here's a list of the running backs who ran 40s today alongside their Speed Score. Generally, anything above 100 is solid. Below 90-92 is a red flag (sometimes). Just one data point, but, once again, this class is looking good. pic.twitter.com/a4Tnskbqge

Weird highlight reel. What do you notice?

Frequently mock Tahj Brooks to us as a 2nd back. He'd be a nice pairing with a Henderson or a Harvey.

After Jeanty, give me either Omarion Hampton or Quinshon Judkins: I'd be ecstatic with either. I wouldn't take Kaleb Johnson as an UDFA.

The #Vikings have met with Miami RB Damien Martinez at the combine, a source tells me. Martinez ran a 4.51 40 yard dash, and is one of the better power backs in this years loaded 2025 RB class. pic.twitter.com/4xHcph61CB

— VikingzFanPage (@vikingzfanpage) March 2, 2025

Yeah, I’d be down with a RB from Miami.

The #Vikings are trying to bring back Aaron Jones on a similar deal that he got last year, per @TonyPauline. Jones received a 1 year, $7M deal with Minnesota last offseason.

Jones is expected to have many suitors after having a career high 1,138 rushing yards in 2024. pic.twitter.com/K77G5Ypgv0
