Titans Draft Speedy Running Back Darrynton Evans

The Tennessee Titans used their third-round pick (93rd overall) on Appalachian State running back Darrynton Evans. Evans is fast -- he ran a 4.41-second 40-yard dash at the combine -- and should complement power-back Derrick Henry nicely in Tennessee's run-first offensive attack. Evans is a one-cut running back with solid explosiveness and excellent vision to […]

Buffalo Adds Zack Moss To Running Back Room

A.J. Dillon Heading To Green Bay

The Green Bay Packers used pick No. 62 to select Boston College running back A.J. Dillon. Dillon is a bruising running back who stands 6'0" and weighs in at 247 pounds. He is a non-factor in the passing game, having caught just 21 passes in three seasons at Boston College but he is a tough, […]
