Jonah Coleman Could Be a Steal in Second Round of Rookie Drafts
Washington running back Jonah Coleman was a fantasy darling early in the process, beginning his pre-draft journey squarely in the conversation to be the second running back off the board. With the NFL Draft just days away, he seems to have fallen out of favor, now being projected most commonly as a Day 3 pick. While Coleman is a well-rounded, between-the-tackles runner who brings strengths to the passing game as both a blocker and receiver, his lack of a top gear shows up repeatedly on film and was all but confirmed by his refusal to run a 40-yard dash at either the Combine or his Pro Day. There are some similarities to Cam Skattebo from last year's draft, as an early favorite whose straight-forward game may have been overanalyzed. At a compact 220 pounds, with unreal contact balance and a nose for the goal line, Coleman is a load to bring down, but the NFL will ultimately tell us how they feel about him with draft capital. Much like Skattebo last year, that may present an opportunity for dynasty drafters to land him later in rookie drafts than they probably should be able to.
