Projecting 10 Players Who Will Shock Scouts at the 2016 NFL Combine

A late-season injury to Utah running back Devontae Booker might have knocked him down on some draft boards, but he could provide great value in this year’s draft.

Scouts will want to see how well Booker has bounced back from injury. According to Tyler Dunne of the Buffalo News, Dennis Erickson, his position coach at Utah, says Booker is back at full speed as he trains in Arizona for the combine. He’s been clocked in the high-4.4 to low-4.6 range in the 40-yard dash.

As Erickson told Dunne, Booker’s hands in receiving drills could separate him from a lot of other running backs in this year’s draft. Not many workhorse backs like Booker—he averaged more carries per game than any other player in college football last season—can add value out of the backfield as a receiver.

If he truly is close to 100 percent again after his knee injury, Booker could command a ton of attention in Indianapolis with his combine numbers. He has the speed, strength and versatility to be one of the best-looking backs in attendance this year.
