The Atlanta Falcons selected Texas running back Bijan Robinson with the eighth pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. He was sensational in his final two seasons in college, putting up a combined 2,707 rushing yards and 29 rushing touchdowns. He also averaged close to six yards per attempt. Robinson can catch the ball out of the backfield, too, as he posted a combined 45 catches for 609 yards and six scores as a receiver.
Robinson is the complete backfield package, as he thrives as a runner, receiver and in pass protection. He would even line up in the slot with the Longhorns, showing that he can run routes and be utilized in multiple roles. Overall, most NFL scouts believe he is the best running back to come out of college since Saquon Barkley.
