Matt Okada of NFL.com has released his list of top fifteen boom-or-bust players set to hit the free agent market and two former Ohio State football greats make the list.
This list isn’t necessarily something to be proud of making, but the two former Buckeyes were such stars during their days in Columbus, I thought it would be interesting to bring to light.
The first Ohio State alum listed is J.K. Dobbins who most fans will remember due to his All-American efforts while in college, but Dobbins also showed flashes of dominance in the NFL after being selected in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Baltimore Ravens. He has been plagued by injury since arriving in Baltimore, but as Okada points out, if a team can sign a healthy 25-year-old Dobbins, he could be a star.
Chase Young is also listed on this list and in my opinion, is a lock to be a boom for a lucky franchise next season. Every Ohio State fan remembers Young and his All-American efforts in Columbus, but he like Dobbins, has struggled with injuries. Young was drafted in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Washington Football Team, but was traded to the San Francisco 49ers during this past season and was still a tad underwhelming. Young was lights out his rookie season and the hope is he can regain some of that magic with his next team.
Happy Birthday J.K. Dobbins
