1. Jonathan Taylor, Wisconsin

I really can’t believe Jonathan Taylor has little to no first round buzz. In my opinion, he was one of the most dominant players in all of college football for his entire run at Wisconsin.

He was an unstoppable force finishing with 32 of 41 games with at least 100 rushing yards and 12 of those over 200 yards. He ran for over 1,950 yards in all three seasons and these stats deserve far more respect than they are getting.

If his production is not enough, Taylor displays many top tier traits that guys like Ezekiel Elliott, Saquon Barkley and Todd Gurley have in the past. Highly physical, good burst and good vision just to name a few.

Taylor, despite being one of the most successful college running backs of all time has the most to prove in the combine. If he can run a 4.4, show people how quick and agile he is for a big back, his draft stock can be drastically improved in just one weekend.
