2025 NFL Free Agency and Draft: RB
I don't see the Vikings adding a running back in free agency. There's just not much out there. Even if we bring back one or both of Jones and Akers, I think the Vikings will take a RB with one of their first two picks. From this list, I love Jeanty and Henderson. Unimpressed by Skattebo and Neal. With the depth of this class, there's probably going to be good backs still on the board after the draft. One sleeper I like right now is Montrell Johnson, Jr out of Florida.
This year’s RB draft class is absolutely LOADED.

Some NFL scouts reportedly believe there could be “easily over 10” selected between rounds one and two.

• Omarion Hampton (UNC)
• Kaleb Johnson (Iowa)
• Dylan Sampson (Tennessee)

To me this is the most underrated back in the draft. Has some Kyren Williams to him
UCF RB RJ Harvey had 145 inside zone carries to 6 wide zone. Don't see that big of a split very often.

Heck of a Pro Day for Central Arkansas RB ShunDerrick Powell (5’9”, 185 lbs), who’s rushed for 1,000+ yards in each of the last three seasons with 38 TD.

Number of plays where TreVeyon Henderson runs into the back of his OL

yet he makes it right because he has freakish acceleration / explosion / juice pic.twitter.com/OagJrexbMM
He’ll fall to 97 now. :cool:

Those almost look like designed plays. Bait defenders to the scrum and then break outside to find nothing but grass.

So, watching this you could conclude that Henderson had questionable vision and outstanding vision.

12 minutes on RB TreVeyon Henderson 🔴
— Josh Norris (@JoshNorris) March 20, 2025
I love him. NFL is all about split backfields. So find a RB who can change a game like this on 15 touches per game.
Electric. Has just enough of an edge. And he's an awesome pass protector.https://t.co/FZnIKEGMXd pic.twitter.com/QdJzxupI1a

TreVeyon Henderson or Omarion Hampton?
— The Fantasy Football Playmakers (@TFFPlaymakers) March 16, 2025
This debate is far from over!
Omarion Hampton
•Projected 1st-round draft capital
•Rare RAS scores comparable to Deuce McAllister, Adrian Peterson, and Ryan Mathews
•Productive collegiate career with a breakout sophomore season
•1,222… pic.twitter.com/kfvy4OqNPX

Right? There are backs who can pass block, but I don't think I've seen anyone enjoy it as much as Henderson. You can see it in his body language.

RB's to Den & Raiders make a ton of sense...I'm not so sure about Chi anymore - unless Jeanty is there. He'd take a ton of heat off Caleb and they have a decent OL rebuilt this off-season.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Honestly, Chicago should go with Swift and Roschon Johnson and address other areas. Johnson was another guy I mocked nonstop. Fantastic pass blocker, sat behind Bijan at Texas. They’ve got a gem sitting on their bench.
Arizona RB Jacory Croskey-Merritt may have played in just one regular season game (due to eligibility concerns) and the Shrine Game but he shined in both, has a good season of tape from 2023 to watch and just ran a 4.45 and jumped 41" at the Big 12 Combine. He is not a secret.
