Eric Smith Eric Smith 5'10" | 190 lbs | RB Father Judge | 2024 State PA is probably the most complete running back on this list. He is good at a lot of different things on the football field. He is a good runner who has a physical running style and it is hard to bring him down. What makes him special is his receiving skills. Smith can be used as a slot receiver or as a running back out of the backfield you use to throw the ball. He has really good hands and does a good job catching the ball. I saw him catch a slot fade and several bubble screens and other passes. Smith also does a good job of staying in and blocking during pass protection. Smith might not be the fastest running back, but he is a complete back who can do a lot of things well.
