Running back will again be a big focus this year as this glamour position is one where rookies can immediately start and make an impact in the league.<\/p>\n
Five running backs were selected in the first round of the NFL Draft last year and there should be three more this year with several others to follow shortly.<\/p>\n
Here a look at the combine props that involve running backs, with their position workouts coming on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Click here for a complete look all of Sportsbook.com\u2019s 2009 Combine odds.<\/strong><\/p>\n Fastest 40-yards Dash \u2013 Chris Wells vs. Knowshon Moreno <\/strong><\/p>\n The odds are Moreno -160 and Wells +130. These are the top two running backs available and each should definitely be taken in the first round. Georgia\u2019s Moreno is projected to run a 4.45 and Ohio State\u2019s Wells 4.50, but anything can happen when they get it on this Sunday.<\/p>\n Fastest 40-yards Dash \u2013 LeSean McCoy vs. Javon Ringer <\/strong><\/p>\n The odds are McCoy -120 and Ringer -110. Pittsburgh\u2019s McCoy should be the third running back taken in the first round and he\u2019s projected to run a 4.50. Michigan State\u2019s Ringer is more of a mid-round selection but he\u2019s projected with the same speed.<\/p>\n Fastest 40-yards Dash \u2013 P.J. Hill vs. Shonn Greene <\/strong><\/p>\n The odds are Greene -130 and Hill (Even). These two running backs made their mark in the Big Ten with Wisconsin (Hill) and Iowa (Greene). Neither of these big, bruising backs are expected to break the speed records but it\u2019s an interesting matchup with each projected to run in the 4.60 range.<\/p>\n Bets 40-yard Dash – O\/U 4.38 seconds <\/strong><\/p>\n The Over and the Under are both -115 odds. Last year, East Carolina\u2019s Chris Johnson blew away the field for all positions in the 40 at 4.24 seconds. He was drafted in the first round by Tennessee due to that performance and had a great rookie season.<\/p>\n Speedy Arkansas running back Darren McFadden (4.33) was the only other running back to break 4.38 seconds last year and he was a top selection for Oakland. Most Bench Presses \u2013 O\/U 26.5 reps <\/strong><\/p>\n The Over is -150 and Under is +120. Only two running backs went over this amount last year, Auburn\u2019s Carl Stewart (30 presses) and Oregon\u2019s Jonathan Stewart (28). The latter Stewart ended up being a first round pick in the draft by Detroit.<\/p>\n Highest Vertical Jump \u2013 O\/U 35.5 inches <\/strong><\/p>\n The Over is -125 odds and the Under is -105. Three backs broke this mark last year, the two Stewart boys and Thomas Brown from Georgia. This seems like there is good value for the Over here despite the odds being shifted slightly that way.<\/p>\n Other Running Back odds <\/strong><\/p>\n Most Bench Presses \u2013 Greene (-125) vs. Wells (-105) So there\u2019s a look at the running back position outlook for the combine.<\/p>\n NFL betting is far from over as Sportsbook.com makes history with almost 30 different props available for the NFL Combine…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[176],"tags":[41,10688,10690,166,66510,10684,66502,10685,10462,10463,10687,10686,10691,1524,868,10689],"class_list":["post-8537","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-betting-props","tag-41","tag-40-yards-dash-odds","tag-bench-press-odds","tag-betting-odds","tag-betting-props","tag-combine-betting-props","tag-nfl","tag-nfl-combine","tag-nfl-combine-betting","tag-nfl-combine-gambling","tag-nfl-combine-lines","tag-nfl-combine-odds","tag-nfl-combine-props","tag-nfl-props","tag-nfl-sportsbook","tag-vertical-jump-odds"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8537"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8537\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":107367,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8537\/revisions\/107367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/p>\n
