No. 10 — Arian Foster

Tennessee

Sr., running back

Why he's No. 10: Foster is one of the most dangerous backs in the league, a player who can run with power and also can take it to the house. He thought about going to the NFL but came back to try to improve his likely second-round status. Foster rushed for 1,193 yards last year and caught 39 passes.

Key number: 4.9. Foster averaged 4.9 yards per carry last year as he finished third in the SEC in rushing. The 4.9 yards per carry were the most of Foster's career.

Fun fact: The all-time leading rusher in Tennessee history is Travis Henry. If Foster stays healthy this year, that honor should belong to him. He needs 685 yards as a senior to pass Henry's total of 3,085 yards.
