Kyren Williams has added competition with Rams Drafting Blake Corum
1 week ago

Kyren Williams may receive fewer opportunities, particularly in the red zone.

The Los Angeles Rams selected Blake Corum in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Last season, Kyren Williams carried a heavy workload while being one of the most productive running backs in the league. Corum stood out as a player at Michigan and was a huge part of their championship culture.

 

Head Coach Sean McVay said in a conference after the NFL draft. “Obviously I love Kyren and he’s been so important, and just the human being, but then also when you just look at the way he works at it, the production, and the things that he was able to bring to our offense last year, and even really some of the things that he worked through his rookie year. I think there’s a lot of similarities.”

 

McVay believes Williams will be a “great mentor” for Corum, and the Rams have the 1-2 punch they were missing last season.

 

Kyren Williams’ managers may have cause for concern with Blake Corum’s touchdown-scoring ability at Michigan, as he has scored 56 rushing touchdowns, the most in program history. Right now it sounds like Williams has the majority of touches in this backfield but fantasy managers shouldn’t be surprised to see Blake Corum come in the game near the goalline ultimately capping Kyren’s upside. This backfield situation will be something to monitor in the offseason as well as weekly, in the regular season.

The Los Angeles Rams Have Drafted Former Michigan Running Back Blake Corum with the 83rd pick in the 2024 NFL Draft
2 weeks ago

The Los Angeles Rams have drafted former Michigan running back Blake Corum with the 83rd pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

The Los Angeles Rams have drafted former Michigan running back Blake Corum with the 83rd pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. Corum helped lead the Wolverines to a national championship. Corum, who completely took over the Wolverine backfield in 2022, smashed in his 2 years as the starter, rushing for 2708 yards and 45 touchdowns on the ground alone.

 

 

Corum will provide the Rams with a great one-two punch with 2023 RB7 Kyren Williams. Not the most ideal landing spot for Corum and his fantasy outlook, as he will likely be a change of pace back his first season with the Rams.

Blake Corum's Combine Performance As Expected
2 months ago

Michigan RB Blake Corum posted the Combine performance we expected, but not the one we hoped.

Blake Corum is a National Champion. He’ll hang on to that achievement for a long time. His athleticism, however, was quickly overshadowed by other running backs at the NFL Scouting Combine.

 

Corum posted a Relative Athletic Score of 5.95. That’s not good. His 4.53 40-yard dash time was good, not great, while other participants flew past him. He also measured at 5’7″, shorter than we thought. Although his weight at 205 pounds does place him in the realm of a successful RB in terms of his BMI, the height and weight placed him in the “poor” category for RAS.

 

Corum’s RAS likely won’t affect his draft position, but some analysts have him as the RB1 in the class, and his Combine performance did not justify that ranking. Corum will still be drafted on Day 2 of the NFL Draft, and is still in the Top 5 of this RB class.

Michigan RB Blake Corum has declared for the 2024 NFL Draft.
4 months ago

Michigan RB Blake Corum has declared for the 2024 NFL Draft after helping lead the Wolverines to a National Championship.

Michigan RB Blake Corum has declared for the 2024 NFL Draft after helping lead the Wolverines to a National Championship. Corum, who completely took over the Wolverines backfield in 2022, smashed in those 2 years rushing for 2708 yards and 45 touchdowns on the ground alone.

 

Corum, who isn’t a big running back, listed at 5-8, 210 pounds, is however, shifty and explosive in small areas, perfect if put in the right situation. Corum lacks size, struggles with pass protection, and is an unproven receiver out of the backfield, however, Corum is one of the best pure runners and could shoot up the board with a good combine with this unproven draft class. Corum should garner at least day 3 if not day 2 draft capital because of his strong running ability and touchdown upside.
