Blake Corum ran all over opponents during his time at Michigan, making him one of the top running backs in the nation over multiple seasons.
Whether Corum will have the same success in the NFL remains to be seen.
FOX Sports NFL Draft analyst Rob Rang ranked him as his fifth-best running back in this year’s class, giving him a third-round grade.
Corum rushed for a program-record 58 touchdowns at Michigan. He also rushed for a whopping 3,660 yards over the last three seasons, and was named a first-team All-American in each of the last two seasons.
As Corum prepares to go pro, oddsmakers believe there’s a good chance he’ll reunite with a familiar face. Jim Harbaugh’s Los Angeles Chargers are the clear betting favorite to select Corum in the 2024 NFL Draft, holding +150 odds.
Corum has already said that he thinks Harbaugh will lead the Chargers to success right away. Maybe he’ll help play a role in that?
The Chargers have the fifth pick in the third round, and beyond the Chargers, no team has odds better than +850 to draft Corum.
Let’s take a look at the latest odds at FanDuel Sportsbook.
