With one of the top running backs with a season ending injury and Collins of Arkansas'  surprisingly poor performance at the combine,  I'm wondering if KD will move up in draft position significantly?

[Dayton Kitchens]

I noticed one of the NFL Draft magazines ranked Kenneth as the fourth best running back in the draft.   His only downsides being his lack of elite speed and imagination at the secondary level (open field running beyond the line of scrimmage and filling linebackers).

It concluded that he would be a fine workhorse, three down back for most NFL teams.

Anyone else watching the special about the NFL Draft that ESPN2 is running currently.... KD is getting a lot of exposure on this show!

[bleudog]

KD selected by the Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round as the overall 134th pick in the draft.

Congratulations.

I saw him on a show called "Welcome to the NFL rookie" on ESPN last night. I saw him play in the state title game in 2011 and he was just a man among boys. I remember Bigworm saying back then that this kid will be in the NFL one day and he was right. Congrats to KD!

I will have him on my fantasy team for sure.

I don't know much about fantasy football, but I don't think Harbaugh has a history of hitching his wagon to rookie running backs.  It will be interesting to see how many chances KD gets when the games count.

[WPWells]

I hope I'm in a league with you

[thabeast428]

Yea me too bc Justin forsett will carry the load on the running game but I believe between Richardson and Kd they will get some carries. But then again joe flavor is pass happy lol

[Lionbro20]

I got to watch his 12 yard run on Facebook, he looks like regular KD evening the NFL

He gonna be ok, Baltimore is a featured back type offense, but I think they will give Dixon some touches, and plenty of them.

Hated to see Dixon go down with a knee injury tonight. Hoping its not to bad and he recovers quick..

"Looked Like Dixon Was No. 2 Back Before Injury
I'm sure the Ravens breathed a deep sigh of relief when they learned Dixon had "only" suffered a sprained knee after being carried off the field late in the first half. He was having a big night with 41 rushing yards on six carries, looking more elusive and explosive than any Baltimore back. Although the Ravens probably are going with a by-committee approach at the position, it appeared to me that Dixon was in the process of nailing down the No. 2 spot behind Justin Forsett, and frankly, if he kept it up, the starter's job was not out of reach. Sorry to sound grim, but when his knee bent awkwardly in a pile as he fell to the ground, it appeared to be a bad injury. A sprain is no picnic, but it's a better outcome than some of the Ravens surely envisioned. The bad news is he's going to be out for a while. The good news is he looks like a bona fide playmaker."
