2027 NFL Draft Running Back Rankings
All 42 ranked running backs in the 2027 class, with the range each is currently projected into.
Where the group stands
The 2027 draft has not been held, so nothing here is a result. What this page shows is where 42 running backs currently sit on the consensus board, and the range of outcomes the public boards support for each.
Jadan Baugh of Florida leads the group at No. 14 overall, currently projected somewhere between 11 and 37.
3 running backs are currently projected inside the first round. Treat all of it as a starting map rather than a finished ranking: early boards move more than they look like they will, and the projected order they sit against does not yet include compensatory picks.
