Jeremiyah Love's Draft Dilemma: Top 10 or Bust?
About this episode
Jeremiyah Love, a top running back prospect, has scouts raving about his skills, but his draft position remains uncertain. The NFLs shift towards pass-heavy offenses and a focus on quarterbacks and edge rushers has led to a decline in first-round running back picks. Additionally, rookie wage scales have reduced the value of top picks, and analytics suggest that scheme matters more than individual rushers. The potential for a 2026 lockout adds to the uncertainty, with teams like Baltimore and Tennessee considering Loves draft position.

It's March 30th. This is NFL News today, AI-powered stories from around the league. I'm Cory with the story. Jeremiah Love lit up Notre Dame in 2025, averaging 137 yards per game with 21 touchdowns over 12. Games, landing third and high as men voting. Scouts call him the class's top talent, blending power, balance, and speed better than recent stars like Ashton Johnty or Bijan Robinson. Still, no consensus on his draft spot. Top 5, top 10, or even first round. Running backs just don't go high anymore. Back in the 70s, they led first round picks, but that crashed in the 90s and kept sliding after 2011. Past heavy offenses, committee runs, and bus second contracts shifted priorities to quarterbacks and edge rushers. Mongevity hits hard too. Rookie wage scales gutted their value. Top picks now earn less adjusted than Reggie Bush did nearly 20 years ago. Back's peak early on cheat deals, then hit free agency where studs like Sequan Barkley
go for bargains, saving teams draft capital for premium spots, analytics sealed it, scheme Trump's individual rushers, and top 10 RB picks since 2010 left 7 of 9 teams losing records long term. Think passing on my homes for McCaffrey, or Alan for Barkley. Mox slide, love to 14, might Baltimore, while Tennessee have four ways to temptation. Ref talk stall toward a possible 2026 lockout over pay hikes, training, and assignments. Echoing 2012's mess. Rams flurdered with Devonce Adams but stayed put, now eyeing backups like her cousins. GraphMaf stays ruthless, forcing teams to rethink every high upside back.
