Israel Abanikanda’s NFLDraft stock continues to rise after his strong Pro Day. _RyanFowler_ breaks down what you need to know about the RB and what skills will translate to the next level.
Let’s take a quick trip back to 2021, shall we? A Pittsburgh Panthers program headlined by Heisman semifinalist quarterback Kenny Pickett and all-world wideout Jordan Addison, Pitt went on to win the ACC. While 2022 saw new faces in new places in the form of Kedon Slovis replacing Pickett and Addison’s transferring to Lincoln Riley’s USC Trojans, many expected Pitt to fade back into the shadows with headliners gone.
A home-run hitter with the bulk to holster an RB1-like workload, Abanikanda was unstoppable in 2022. With 20 touchdowns and more than 1,200 yards on the ground to the tune of 6.0 yards a pop, opposing defenses knew he was carrying the rock but simply had no answer. And while his days as a Panther are now in the rearview mirror, his tape, combined with an elite athletic profile, has raised his draft stock in what is a deep talent pool of running backs this spring.
