When it comes to running backs in the 2023 NFL Draft, two in particular stand out above all others: Texas' Bijan Robinson, and Alabama's Jahmyr Gibbs.The impre sive versatility, speed and athleticism displayed by both Robinson and Gibbs in college and at the NFL Combine have raised their stock tremendously, even as the position has greatly depreciated in value. (That is helped in no small part by both players' pa s-catching ability out of the backfield.)Robinson is the consensus top back of the cla s, though Gibbs has quickly risen up draftniks' boards as another potential first-round selection. While the former almost certainly will go first between the two, it's still worth taking a closer side-by-side inspection of the players, and where they might land in this year' Kyle Long Jersey s draft.TSN'S NFL DRAFT HQ | | With that, here's everything you need to know about Robinson and Gibbs, including college stats and highlights, scouting reports, RAS scores, 40 times and more:Bijan Robinson mock draftTSN's Vinnie Iyer projects Robinson will be the first back taken off the board, with the Lions using their second pick of the first round to draft him No. 18 overall. There, he would join an explosive offense that includes quarterback Jared Goff and receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams.Writes Iyer of Robinson:The Lions have grown weary of D'Andre Swift's durability i sues and that's why they got a more well-rounded back in David Montgomery to replace Jamaal Williams. That could be setting them up to also move on from Swift, with Tom Waddle Jersey Montgomery settling into a pure backup role. Robinson is a terrific power back who has special three-down skills. His explosivene s behind their elite line to complement a downfield pa sing game would be game-changing for an already loaded offense.MORE: Jahmyr Gibbs mock draftIyer has the Eagles using their second first-round pick (30th overall) to draft Gibbs. In Philadelphia, he not only would run behind the most dominant line in the NFL, but would also benefit from Jalen Hurts' rushing ability and deep-threat receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith.The Eagles can't go into the season trusting oft-injured former Seahawk Rashaad Penny as a reliable lead back to replace Miles Sanders and should just make this worthy luxury pick, putting Alabama's latest star back with (quarterback Jalen Hurts). Gibbs blazed to a 4.36 40-yard dash and also showed tremendous receiving skills on top of being a compact power back capable of holding up for three downs in the Frank Gore vein.MORE: Bijan Robinson statsRushingYearCarriesYardsTouchdownsYPC20208670348.220211951,127115.820222581,580186.1ReceivingYearReceptionsYardsTouchdownsYPR202015196213.1202126295411.3202219314216.5All purposeYearTouchesYardsTouchdownsYPT202010189968.920212211,422156.420222771,894206.8Jahmyr Gibbs statsRushingYearCarriesYardsTouchdownsYPC20208946045.2202114374645.2202215192676.1ReceivingYearReceptionsYardsTouchdownsYPR202024303312.6202136470213.1202244444310.1All purpose* Roquan Smith Jersey YearTouchesYardsTouchdownsYPT202012196878.020212021,80578.920222081,628107.8MORE: Bijan Robinson 40 timeRobinson ran a 4.47 in the 40-yard dash at the 2023 NFL Combine, good for the sixth-fastest time among running backs this year.There goes on Texas Football (@TexasFootball) Jahmyr Gibbs 40 timeGibbs ran a 4.36 40 at the combine, good for the second-fastest time of any running back.

He also received a poor explosive grade in the vertical leap, where he jumped 33.5 inches.But Gibbs' speed grades in the 40-yard dash and 20- and 10-yard splits were all elite, with scores of 9.89, 9.76 and 9.73, respectively.
