The New England Patriots face a ton of needs heading into the 2026 NFL draft from past

rushers and linebackers to offensive linemen and skill players.

One intriguing option at Running Back is Clemson Standout Adam Randall, a 6'3'232'

athlete who could bring.

Earlier this year, Randall made a smart switch from wide receiver to running back,

exploding for 8014 rushing yards, 200, 54 receiving yards, and 13 touchdowns over 13 games.

His combine numbers pop 2, with a 4.50 in the 40 yard dash, a 37 inch vertical, and a 10-foot-4

broad jump.

Fans and scouts love his size, speed, and ability to catch passes out of the backfield,

making him a nightmare match up for linebackers.

He's physical, initiates contact, and shows steady improvement all season.

That said, he's still raw after just one year at the position, with some footwork issues

and past protection concerns from past injuries.

The Patriots already hosted Randall for a pre-draft visit, signaling interest in how he might

add a new wrinkle to their offense, perhaps on special.

Teams, or as a rotational piece.

Coach's C potential in his multi-tool skill set, even if he's not an instant star.

Overall, he's graded around a C plus, comparable to Samajé Perrine, betting on his upside

as a project player who could develop into a solid, contributor down the line.
