Judkins, 21, had his most productive season as a freshman at Ole Miss, leading the SEC with 274 rushing attempts for 1,567 yards (seventh in FBS) and 16 touchdowns (10th in FBS). After a second-straight first-team All-SEC selection as a sophomore (1,158 yards, 15 TDs), Judkins opted to transfer to Ohio State, where he willingly split snaps with Henderson.

Despite the shared time, Judkins surpassed the 1,000-yard mark for a third season (194 carries, 1,060 yards, 5.5 yards per carry) and put an exclamation point on his career in the national championship, accounting for three of Ohio State’s four touchdowns in the victory. Judkins ran wild to the tune of 11 totes for 100 yards and two touchdowns — highlighted by a 70-yard score — and tacked on a receiving TD for good measure.

Built to run tough with his 6-foot, 221-pound frame, Judkins possesses a powerful and aggressive play style and shows a willingness for contact. Next Gen Stats awarded Judkins a 92 athleticism ranking, No. 2 among RBs at this year’s combine, and he showed explosiveness off the line with his 1.51 10-yard split.

Where Judkins could improve is in his efficiency, recording lower than 4 yards per carry in six contests in his final year. Paired with his only average speed (4.48 40-yard time), he’s unlikely to be a breakaway threat in the NFL ranks.

Nevertheless, Judkins’ production and toughness offer the potential to become a successful addition to the Browns’ rushing attack.
