NC State’s Matthew Dayes doesn’t come with the same amount of fanfare as the other running back prospects in this draft, but he has starter ability. He would give the Minnesota Vikings a reliable option to help ease the loss of Adrian Peterson.

Another running back coming off the board in this group is Wisconsin’s Corey Clement. He lands with the Pittsburgh Steelers who could be looking for a replacement for DeAngelo Williams. Clement is a steady performer who features a strong 2nd gear.
