The NFL Draft is just around the corner, presenting a unique challenge for veteran running backs as an impressive crop of rookies is set to join the league. This year's draft could see numerous running backs selected on Day 2, and even more on Day 3, creating fierce competition for less established players. Non-star backs, in particular, have a lot at stake as teams look to revamp their rosters with fresh talent.

For instance, Rhamondre Stevenson of the New England Patriots may face increased scrutiny as the team could seek to bolster their running back depth. Similarly, Brian Robinson Jr. of the Washington Commanders must contend with the pressure of a potential new addition to the backfield after a drop in rushing efficiency last season. With teams aiming to improve their rushing attacks, many running backs could find their roles on shaky ground as the draft unfolds.
