  Draft Scout by Conference









  Ohio State football's J.K. Dobbins ran with a sense of purpose throughout a record-setting 2019 season. The Dobbins who ran for over 2,000 yards - the one who broke off two runs of 60-plus yards against Clemson in the Fiesta Bowl - bore little resemblance to the one who scuffled through his sophomore season in 2018. After a slide to the second half of the second round, Dobbins probably has a renewed sense of purpose. The Baltimore Ravens selected him with the 55th pick in Friday's second round of the 2020 NFL Draft, meaning the NFL's most prolific rushing attack just picked up a motivated running back. Dobbins was the fifth running back selected, which will likely add a little fuel to the Texas native's fire, however. So will his position relative to Wisconsin's Jonathan Taylor, the back with whom he shared a handful of battles in college. The Indianapolis Colts traded up with the Browns to take Taylor at No. 41.

Dobbins joins an offense led by reigning NFL MVP Lamar Jackson. The Ravens went 14-2 in 2019 while rushing for 3,296 yards and finishing with almost 1,000 more yards and 100 more attempts than runner-up San Francisco. Jackson set an NFL record for rushing yards by a quarterback, and the reigning MVP adds Dobbins as a complementary talent in the backfield. Dobbins will also play for John Harbaugh, the brother of Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh. "It's amazing," Dobbins said in a video the Ravens posted on Twitter. "I'm going to get to play with the MVP of the NFL. I"m going to do my best to help him and help the team win. It's definitely a blessing to be on this team." - Cleveland Plain Dealer
