Alfred Morris was drafted with pick 173 of round 6 in the 2012 draft class. He scored a 4.58 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 384 out of 707 RB from 1987 to 2012. https://t.co/CXZv6jnbIc pic.twitter.com/0yKWBj8buH

Alfred Morris was off the radar for most when he burst onto the scene as a 6th round rookie in 2012. He rushed for 1,613 yards and 13 TDs that year, though his yards and efficiency would drop over each of the next four seasons. He rushed for a total of over 6,000 career yards. pic.twitter.com/1PO4Pj22BO

Clinton Portis was drafted with pick 51 of round 2 in the 2002 draft class. He did not qualify for a #RAS due to a lack of measurements. https://t.co/BtOETrqgnL

Though we have no official testing as he did not test, what I’ve been able to gather suggests he’d have tested well. pic.twitter.com/9SBhjcx41g

Portis absolutely exploded into the NFL as a rookie, with 1,508 yards and 15 TDs which he followed up with a similar line in each of the next three seasons. Injuries would start to wear him down, but he finished his career with just shy of 10,000 yards rushing, 32nd all time. pic.twitter.com/ZJ1c4tnwKd

Adrian Peterson was drafted with pick 7 of round 1 in the 2007 draft class. He scored a 9.64 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 20 out of 524 RB from 1987 to 2007. https://t.co/V6Pm8ZjiR5 pic.twitter.com/KWj1kCnkbk

Peterson hit 1,341 yards and 12 TDs as a rookie, and kept that level of production through his age 30 season. Technically not retired, he’s sitting at 14,918 yards, good for 5th all time. pic.twitter.com/LeeQ4p359o

Chris Rodriguez Jr. was drafted with pick 193 of round 6 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 7.71 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 401 out of 1745 RB from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/1DxLlPahWb pic.twitter.com/H1MELTATMt

Brian Robinson ran for 797 yards as a rookie, while Antonio Gibson rushed for only 546 after his 1k outing in 2021. It’s not unreasonable to think Chris Rodriguez could find his way into a starting role if the Commanders blocking significantly improves, but he’d need a lotta luck

I heard @granthpaulsen and @funnydanny talking about the state of FedEx Field and the seats. I’m at the Ed Sheeran Concert tonight and these are the seats in my section. Dan clearly stopped caring (if he ever truly did) a long time ago. Can’t wait for July 20th! #ByeDan pic.twitter.com/W8BD7fBacw
