2026 NFL Combine Shocker: Which Underrated Receivers and Running Backs Suddenly Became Must-Watch Prospects?
We finally made it through a long, long Saturday, but the offensive skill position workouts in the 2026 NFL Draft are in the book.

For a supposedly weak draft class we saw yet another day of historic workouts from every position group.

Washington bypassed the field drills, but threw down a potentially historic workout:
Mike Washington Jr. is a RB prospect in the 2026 draft class. He scored an unofficial 10.00 RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 1 out of 2115 RB from 1987 to 2026.CHECK OUT THE HOTTEST DEALS ON AMAZON!
