Shadrach Thornton could be a middle-round pick

North Carolina State running back Shadrach Thornton has been an up-and-down type guy his whole college career. He has seen his share of successes and failures, but his senior year is looking to be a promising one.

NFL.com recently ranked the Top 150 senior draft prospects and Thornton made the cut.

The website says that Thornton has a lot of potential to be great in the NFL, despite his choice of running style.

Thornton had a terrific year at NC State last season while splitting time in a platoon backfield. He rushed for 908 yards and nine touchdowns and earned All-ACC honorable mention honors.
