Quinshon Judkins' Scouting Report

Quinshon Judkins is an all-around solid athlete and was a reliable running back for Ohio State. He showcases good hands and a smooth transition in the receiving game, making him a versatile option on all three downs. While his top-end speed isn’t elite, his acceleration through the line of scrimmage is impressive, highlighted by his 41 touchdowns over three seasons.

Judkins is a patient runner who trusts his blockers and consistently churns out positive plays, even if he’s more of a grinder than a creative playmaker. Judkins has exceptional contact balance. He prefers to run through defenders rather than avoid them, though his lack of lateral movement and one-speed style limits his ability to make defenders miss. Judkins’ improved pass-blocking makes him an ideal candidate to be a three-down back in the NFL.

Ideal Scheme Fit

Judkins’ versatility in run schemes and ability to play all three downs makes him a good fit for any team. However, he’ll be best in an inside zone or gap scheme that allows him to pick up chunk yardage in the middle of the defense.
