Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reported that some NFL teams have former Alabama football running back Jahmyr Gills as their top-rated running back over former Texas football running back Bijan Robinson ahead of the NFL Draft, and Fowler said it is not because of ability, but fit in scheme.
If a team prefers the play style of a running back like Alvin Kamara, then the Alabama football running back Jahmyr Gibbs gets priority over Texas football running back Bijan Robinson, according to Fowler. He said Robinson is still considered the best running back by most scouts he has spoken to, but Gibbs’ stock is clearly high.
