Before being drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in the 2020 NFL Draft, J.K. Dobbins was dominating at The Ohio State University,

In his three years in Columbus, Dobbins rushed for over 4,400 yards and never had less than 1,000 in a single season. His best performance was his final season, his junior year, where he posted more than 2,000 rushing yards en route to some Heisman Trophy consideration.

However, one does not land at one of the best college football programs in the nation without putting on an impressive show in high school first.

And that's exactly what Dobbins did. He plowed over guys, cut past them and blew by defenders regularly leaving them in the dust. After seeing his 2017 highlights, it's clear why Urban Meyer, a master recruiter, had to get him to Ohio State.

While it's yet to be seen if Dobbins can carry over that dominance to the professional level, he will be joining one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL in Baltimore, which should provide him plenty of chances to show off his skills.
