Another back drafted by Cleveland
The Browns selected Sampson in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 126th overall.
ANALYSIS
The Browns had a significant hole at running back entering the draft, and they've invested accordingly. Sampson will join Quinshon Judkins -- selected in the second round -- as rookies on the running back depth chart. The former showcased mediocre athletic ability at the combine, but Sampson was an excellent contributor at Tennessee by tallying 1,491 rushing yards and 22 total touchdowns across 13 games in 2024 while facing stiff SEC competition. Both scouting reports and draft capital suggest Sampson will start behind Judkins on the depth chart, but Sampson should have the chance to find the field in his rookie season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Top RB available per Brugler
Dane Brugler of The Athletic has Sampson as the best running back available ahead of the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
ANALYSIS
Sampson earned the SEC Offensive Player of the Year award in 2024 as the starter for Tennessee, setting single-season school records with 1,491 rushing yards and 22 rushing touchdowns on 258 carries. Sampson is considered undersized at 5-foot-8, but he is a physical and elusive runner who can develop into a reliable option in the passing game. He could be one of the first players off the board on Day 3, with Jordan Reid of ESPN.com projecting the Bears to select Sampson in the fourth round, 109th overall.
