Israel Abanikanda Scouting Report & Draft Stock
Abanikanda is getting overlooked in an RB draft class that is filled with prospects that played for some of the best programs in the nation. The New York native does the little things well and that is what will impress NFL scouts.
Abanikanda shines when it comes to picking up the blitz, falling forward at the end of runs and letting the play develop in front of him. He scored 21 total touchdowns in his final season and his nose for the end zone should help him get drafted between the third and fifth rounds.
