2027 NFL Draft Running Back Rankings: Which Rising Star Will Shock Scouts Before the 2026 Season?
2. Jadan Baugh, Florida
Jadan Baugh had a five-touchdown game as a freshman that announced his presence to the college football world. The Florida product has only gotten better and more consistent ever since, and that should continue through the 2026 season. Baugh runs with balance and had 1,170 rushing yards last season.
1. Kewan Lacy, Ole Miss
Kewan Lacy is the best running back prospect for the 2027 NFL Draft, and he projects as a potential first-round pick. The Ole Miss star burst onto the scene after transferring from Missouri. He put up 1,567 yards and 24 touchdowns last season by running with vision and patience, and then using his explosiveness to make the proper cuts when holes opened up. The route running and hands need some work, but as a pure runner, it doesn’t get much better than Lacy.
