Quick takeaways

Blake Corum's potential success in the NFL depends on his landing spot and role, offering mid-range to low-end fantasy value.

Marshawn Lloyd stands out as a versatile three-down back prospect with second-round NFL draft projections and high fantasy value potential.

Isaiah Davis' NFL future may hinge on adapting his game to fit a specific role due to limited agility and pass-catching abilities.

Deep dives

Blake Corum, Michigan Running Back

Blake Corum, a running back from Michigan, showcased his skills with impressive statistics, including 1,245 rushing yards and 27 touchdowns in 15 games. While some analysts have high expectations for him, highlighting his lateral agility, contact balance, and vision, others question his long-term success in the NFL due to his lack of standout qualities like exceptional speed or elusiveness. Depending on the team he ends up with and his role, he could be a mid-range to low-end running back option for fantasy football teams, with potential relevance if utilized correctly in the right system.
