With the 2026 NFL Draft just 10 days away, Ryan and caller Nico dig deep into the running back pool — breaking down Day 2 through Day 7 prospects, separating the highlight tape frauds from the real deal, and figuring out which backs could actually stick on an NFL roster.
🏃 Judarian Price & the Second-Round RB Question — Is it a mistake to spend your first pick on a back? Ryan and Nico debate positional value vs. just finding the best player. Consensus board has Price at 45 — he might not last.
📊 Jones Coleman (Washington) — The Favorite — 3.91 GPA, team captain, first in his family of nine to attend college, AND a freak on the field. PFF grades in the 80s and 90s across four college seasons, 67 missed tackles forced, zero fumbles over three years. Ryan's early top pick of the group.
⚡ Mike Washington vs. Emmett Johnson — Pure speed freak vs. well-rounded receiver. Washington's a big, fast straight-line burner with technique concerns in pass protection. Johnson won't wow you on tape but grades out well as a receiver.
