- 2026 NFL Draft Rankings: Running Back
The 2026 NFL Draft is right around the corner, and we've got you covered with rankings for every position group in this year's class.
This year's crop of top running back prospects is headlined by a pair of Fighting Irish rushers who torched opposing defenses last year. Jeremiyah Love is a top-five talent in this year's draft, regardless of position, while teammate Jadarian Price should be a Day 2 selection. Another tandem, Penn State 's Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen , are also among the top 10 backs in this year's draft.
