RB. Wisconsin. Melvin Gordon. 15. player. 13. After a trade ….. The Wisconsin product had one of the best seasons imaginable for the position in 2014. He recorded the second-most single-season rushing yards in FBS History with 2,587, broke the FBS single-game rushing record with 408 yards and set multiple Wisconsin records, such as 12 100-yard games and six 200-yard games. All these extraordinary performances lead to him winning the Doak Walker Award, given to the nation’s best running back, first-team All-American and first-team All-Big Ten selections, and a nomination for the Heisman Trophy. Gordon’s running style allows him to bounce to the outside and deek defenseman out of their shoes. He is also working hard on improving his abilities as a pass catcher, which will make his value even higher for a team looking for a multi-scheme running back – <a href=
