PLAYER ANALYSIS
Has unusual build for the position with a linear frame and thin hips. Johnson proved that he was more than tough enough to carry a heavy workload to help Auburn impose their will on the ground. Johnson runs with good burst and is adept as both an inside and outside runner, but is more likely to become a grinder than a slasher on the next level. Johnson offers three-down value and could become an early starter, but his frame may not be able to hold up over the long haul if he's forced into high carry totals.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Thomas is a change of pace back with plus athletic ability and agility, who can be too eager to turn every run into a big play. He will need to run with better patience and discipline to keep running back coaches from staying in his face. Thomas is able to create yardage through burst, elusiveness and yards after contact, but he lacks consistency from run to run. Thomas needs work, but he has the talent to potentially attract attention late on Day 3.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Big, bruising and slow, Pettway is a grinder who is unable to make tacklers miss and rarely gives it much of a shot. He's physical and heavy behind his pads, but he doesn't have the functional vision or burst necessary for interior running duties in the pros. Pettway's off-the-field concerns will sink his draft stock and may make it challenging to get into a camp unless he rehabilitates his image with NFL teams.
