Ohio State Buckeyes star running back Ohio State Chris “Beanie” Wells has decided to skip his senior season and enter the NFL draft.

“I want to thank my teammates, my coaches, my teachers and the academic advisors for all they have done, and I definitely want to thank the Buckeye fans for all their support,” Wells said. “Ohio State has become like a family to me, and it will always be that way. But in the best interest of my family, it’s time to move on and take a chance at fulfilling my lifetime dream of playing in the NFL.”

Well’s has the potential to become elite running back in the NFL and as of right now he should be the 2nd back selected in the draft after Iowa’s Shonn Greene. But the NFL combine usually changes everything so it’s hard to make January draft projections.
