Tevin Coleman is one of the top running backs in a tough 2015 NFL Draft class. He’s got stiff competition to be an early second round selection, having to beat out guys like Jay Ajayi and Duke Johnson to be next off the board behind Wisconsin’s Melvin Gordon and Alabama’s Todd Gurley.
That isn’t to say that Coleman doesn’t deserve to be in the consideration of best backs available in the 2015 NFL Draft. He certainly does.
Coleman is almost unique among running backs in this year’s draft class. He’s a violent runner, constantly playing with an edge to him that makes defenders not want to tackle him.
