"He didn't see much playing time at Ohio State as he sat buried on the depth chart because of a prolific offense led by two excellent receivers. Donaldson is much of a diamond in the rough, but has potential. He came to Columbus as a transfer from West Virginia, where he originally started as a tight end before converting to running back his freshman season. Because of his background, he's a diverse weapon who can catch the football in addition to being a downhill runner."
"Tennessee's Chris Brazell II has a great athletic foundation to work from. He's 6'5" with terrific speed to stretch the field vertically. Surely his length will attract extra looks from the scouts, and if he runs as well as he's expected to, he may rise up draft boards. That said, he does need to add more muscle to his frame and sharpen his route running. There's also a familial tie as his father played for the Cowboys from 1999 to 2000."
The NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis will bring top prospects ahead of the draft. The Dallas Cowboys hold the 12th and 20th overall picks and have a reputation for generally making strong first-round selections. The team suffered from a porous defense last season and plans to aggressively retool under first-year defensive coordinator Christian Parker. Offensive depth is also needed. C.J. Donaldson appears as a versatile, low-profile running back who transferred from West Virginia, converted from tight end, can catch passes, and produced multiple 100-yard games early in college. Chris Brazell II offers size and speed but needs added strength and refined route running.
