The Washington Commanders added two new running backs in free agency. They also re-signed Jeremy McNichols to a one-year deal. And yet, speculation continues to rise about another hotly touted draft prospect with game-changing potential.
That, of course, is Jeremiyah Love. Whether the Notre Dame product will be available when Washington goes on the clock is debatable. If he is around, one team insider believes this could be a risk general manager Adam Peters is willing to take.
Much has been made about the risks of taking a running back high. There are some exceptions, with the likes of Saquon Barkley, Bijan Robinson, and Ashton Jeanty being top-10 picks in recent years.
