There has been a lot of talk about the upcoming edition of the NFL Draft.

This time, however, most of the talk has been centered around quarterbacks.

This makes sense, given that this is one of the most talented quarterback classes we’ve seen in quite a while.

Nonetheless, there could also be plenty of value in other positions, especially on the second and third days of the draft.

With that in mind, multiple teams should keep an eye on Wisconsin star Braelon Allen, as he’s looking to learn from the best of them.

That was evident when he shared a picture working out with none other than Derrick Henry (Via Hogg NFL).

Henry is obviously the most physically imposing running back in the game, perhaps of all time, and Allen isn’t that far behind in terms of raw power and strength.

He has a rare build for a running back, and he lacks the explosiveness or speed that could make him a perennial starter, but he could be very valuable on third down and short-yardage situations because of his pure potency.

Teams don’t usually spend high picks on running backs, and they deal with them as if they were disposable.

But if the Baltimore Ravens are looking to add more depth behind their veteran running back and stellar free-agency signing — which they should — it seems like Braelon Allen already has King Henry’s stamp of approval, and that should be all the information the front office needs.
