These are the guys who I found myself rooting for, like their game, character or just can’t explain it at all. I think every fan has a few players that they like and we don’t have to justify that. Jalen Hurts is a previous favorite player of mine and even though I didn’t expect him to lead the Eagles to a Super Bowl so early in his career, I have always rooted for his success. Here are 10 players in the 2023 draft that I find myself rooting for so far. 

Bijan Robinson, RB, Texas

Farewell to Bijan Robinson, the Best Running Back in College ...

No surprise here with the first favorite offensive player, and my favorite player overall in this class. Bijan Robinson is the most complete running back to enter the draft since Najee Harris in 2021. Ok, so it hasn’t been that long since we’ve seen a running back of this caliber, but that doesn’t mean Bijan Robinson isn’t special. Robinson made chicken salad out of chicken shit in his three years at Texas - while running behind a below average offensive line - and showcased his ability to make defenders miss. Everyone wants to use the Reggie Bush comp for Robinson’s big play ability and agile feet. But I see another No. 5 when I watch Bijan Robinson - LaDanian Tomlinson. Tomlinson and Robinson both weigh in at 220+ lbs, have lightning quick feet and are straight up dangerous catching the ball. Robinson is so good at receiving that he could even line up at receiver in the NFL. Robinson is getting some high praise here, but that is why he is my favorite player in this draft. Maybe a little Texas Longhorns biased…but who knows.
