2025 NFL Draft preview: 5 running backs that could interest Lions

2. Quinshon Judkins, Ohio State

6-0, 221. 4.48 40-yard dash

Judkins has terrific size, athleticism and speed for the position. He rushed for over 1,000 yards along with Henderson for the Buckeyes last season. The Mississippi transfer rushed for over 1,100 yards in the SEC as a sophomore in 2023, which means he was a 1,000-yard rusher in both of the top two conferences in college football the last two seasons.

3. Dylan Sampson, Tennessee

5-8, 200. 4.42 40-yard dash

The SEC Player of the Year had nearly 1,500 rushing yards (1,491) and 22 touchdowns this past season and also chipped in 20 receptions. He’s got to prove to teams he can pass protect with his frame, and he also has to improve his ball security, but he could be a terrific special teams player and good complement to Gibbs and Montgomery as a third option.
