Targeting a running back early in your college fantasy football drafts is a bold strategy. Given the nature of the position and the scoring in CFF, you’re wise to find the best value players at quarterback early. That is, of course, unless you have someone like Quinshon Judkins.
Quinshon Judkins College Fantasy Profile
Exploding onto the scene last season, Judkins flashed elite potential and may just be scratching the surface of what we’ll see from him throughout his career. Considering the fact that he didn’t “start a game” until Week 8, his numbers look even more impressive.
Judkins has a blend of strength and speed, understanding when to use his strength to bludgeon would-be tacklers just the same as he knows when to turn on the jets to evade slower defenders.

He’s a bowling ball with terrific contact balance and has some of the game’s best vision in the open field. Making matters even better, once he did get the starting job, he was clearly a factor in the receiving game as well, nabbing 10 catches over the final six outings.
Judkins’ 2022 season
One of the top running backs in the country, Judkins took the college football world by storm. Known for his offensive schematics, head coach Lane Kiffin knew he had a rare talent on his hands and inserted Judkins into his lineup early and often in 2022.
Earning the starting nod against a tough LSU defense, Judkins totaled eight games with at least 100 yards and two games with over 200 a season ago.
He scored 16 touchdowns as a result of his goal-line touches and his open-field vision and breakaway speed. Judkins’ usage package increases in the red zone and he’s the top-ranked fantasy running back for a reason.
