A look at the running backs that will be participating in the NFL Scouting Combine

The NFL Draft is just a few months away, which means that it’s time for one of the most important parts of the NFL Draft process, the annual NFL Scouting Combine. Each and every year, the best football players coming out of the college ranks gather together in Indianapolis and show off everything they have to all 32 teams in attendance.

This year, the running backs have a lot to offer, that’s for sure.

There is certainly not a shortage of rushers in this year’s group, which will be led by the likes of Melvin Gordon, Ameer Abdullah, Tevin Coleman and a host of others that will look to rejuvenate the running back position in the NFL once they hit that level.

With that being said, the NFL released the full list of running backs that will be taking part in the NFL Scouting Combine festivities later this month, and here is the final group of rushers that will be in Indianapolis:
