Tevin Coleman

When you rush for over 2,000 yards in college, you have to declare as Indiana Hoosiers running back Tevin Coleman has. He’s not projected to go in the first round as of now but the way they’re trying to devalue running backs these days, this may be as good as it gets for him. But I definitely think he is special and deserves some 1st-round consideration in this year’s draft.

Of the 24 men that rushed for over 2,000 yards in college, only 10 of them were busts in the NFL. That’s over 58 percent odds that he’ll be a solid-to-great player in the NFL so G.M.s better listen. Either way, it was a good decision for Coleman who can do no more in college but end up getting injured.
