Chris Wells, RB, Ohio StateMeasurables:
Combine height: 6-1
Combine weight: 235 pounds
Combine 40 time: 4.59 seconds

Stats:
Wells’ final campaign at Ohio State was marred by injury, but he still managed 207 carries for 1,242 yards (6.0 yards per carry) and eight touchdowns; he also caught eight passes for 47 yards. In his abbreviated Buckeye career, Wells totaled 3,496 yards and 30 touchdowns on 585 carries (6.0 yards per carry), along with 15 catches for 84 yards.

Skill Set:
Simply put, Wells is the total package. He’s big, strong, fast, and a natural runner who has been compared to everyone from Jim Brown to Adrian Peterson, and no less an authority than two-time Heisman winner Archie Griffin called him the best running back in Ohio State history. While his Combine 40 may seem on the slow side, when healthy Wells had no trouble running away from defenders in the open field. He’s also a punishing inside runner who moves piles yet has the quick feet to slip through small openings at the line.
