Ezekiel Elliott, Derrick Henry draw All-Pro comparisons ahead of NFL Draft

Ezekiel Elliott and Derrick Henry could be huge pieces wherever they land.

Ezekiel Elliott and Derrick Henry are the two top running back prospects in the NFL Draft.

Both project to have solid NFL careers, and ESPN's SportScience dropped in the player's respective ceilings as Elliott landing alongside Marshawn Lynch with Henry closely mirroring Eddie George.

Henry projects toward the end of the first round, but could land in the second round. Elliott is flying up the charts, and could go as high as No. 4 to the Dallas Cowboys.

"[Ezekiel Elliott] can run around you. He can run over you. And most importantly...he's a great blocker. That's going to keep him on the field as a rookie. Doesn't fumble. That's why he could be in play for Dallas at four, Baltimore at six," Kiper recently told ESPN. "If Dallas can use him as Emmitt Smith, what Emmitt was to Aikman, [Elliott] could be to Romo late in his career...I think four, Dallas - six, Baltimore is where he ends up."

Regardless of where they're selected, if they pan out anything like their All-Pro comparisons, Henry and Elliott could be cornerstone pieces for their respective franchises.
