The NFL Draft is set to begin on April 27.
That is one day that many NFL fans cannot wait for.
Finding out where some of the future stars of the NFL will end up is always fun.
Like every draft season, most of the talk is about where the quarterbacks will end up.
Everyone wants to discuss the signal-callers as they are the most crucial position.
But, there is one player who might not be getting enough love.
That is Texas running back Bijan Robinson.
He is seen by many as one of the top five players in this class, but his position is not valued in the NFL.
We have seen in many seasons how running backs drafted on day three or that go undrafted can have major impacts in year one.
So, why should a team spend a first-round pick on a running back?
NFL Draft expert Daniel Jeremiah thinks Robinson is similar to Hall of Fame running back Edgerrin James.

Robinson might have the most immediate impact for any player in the upcoming draft.
He is ready to be a Week 1 starter and has All-Pro potential as a rookie.
Some team will take Robinson in the first round, and they will be very happy that they did.
Running backs may not be as valuable as they once were, but they can still make a major impact in every game.
Some team is going to be very happy that Robinson fell to them on draft night.
