    On paper as 18-19 year olds, not a special RB year/class IMO, but solid with some good depth.

    Collins has all the physical gifts plus body type/size combo IMO.

    There are some senior risers I really like too...

    Here is one, a kid from north of Dallas (Little Elm), Ke'aun Kinner (5-9, 182) that put up 2,692 yards in 10 games in a quality 4A district.

    Not a 40 fast kid, but he has every RB instinct one could want. Breaks A LOT of tackles for 180. Just terrific vision and run maximizing ability.

    May have to go the JUCO route - will be close.

    Mentioned Ke'aun Kinner in this thread, but here is what the 5-foot-9, 182-pounder did in an incredible 2012 season in 4A ball in the Dallas area.
