Bijan Robinson Selected No. 8 Overall in 2023 NFL Draft


With the No. 8 overall pick, the Falcons have established a three-headed monster coming out of the backfield in 2023.

“Overall, Robinson is the complete package as both a runner and receiver with vision, instincts and elusive traits that will translate well to the NFL,” according to The Athletic’s Dane Brugler in his 2023 draft guide. “He is one of the most talented players in the draft class.”

More on Bijan Robinson: From Dane Brugler’s “The Beast” draft guide: “He became the first Longhorn to rush for more than 1,500 yards and post more than 300 receiving yards in a single season, and his 3,410 career rushing yards ranks fourth in school history behind Ricky Williams, Cedric Benson and Earl Campbell (all four-year players).”

What’s next: The Falcons are scheduled to pick next at No. 44 overall, a selection that will be made on Friday night.
