The running backs did the bench press on Thursday. This tells us a little bit about their strength. It isn't a good measure of what that means on the football field, as running backs use their legs more than their arms and chest. Who showed off? How about 30 reps from Andy Jancovich and Dan Vitale? The least reps recorded were by Alabama's Kenyan Drake, but he won't be drafted for his strength, anyway.
Here are the full results.
