NFL Draft 2017: 1st-Round Order and Predictions for Combine's Early Stars

The 2017 NFL Scouting Combine is upon us and some of the most anticipated workouts of the week took place on Friday as the running backs were on the field for their drills. 

Combine performances rarely have a dramatic impact on a player's draft stock, but they can help answer some lingering questions and solidify a player's grade on each team's draft board. And some of the early workouts and weigh-in results have already served that purpose for a number of the top prospects in the 2017 NFL draft. 

Based on some of the new information gathered in Indianapolis, here's a look at an updated mock draft, followed by a breakdown of a few first-round prospects who have already helped themselves at the combine.

Leonard Fournette

Leonard Fournette made headlines almost immediately upon arriving in Indianapolis when he weighed in at 240 pounds.

While 240 pounds certainly isn't unheard of for a running back, it is rare to see someone at the combine tip the scales in that range. So, naturally, upon seeing Fournette's mildly surprising weight, sportswriters took to Twitter to share their scorching hot takes, including Pete Prisco of CBSSports.com:

As a general rule, Prisco is probably right, but there are obviously exceptions. NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah was quick to point out that he personally weighed Jamal Lewis at 245 pounds throughout his 2,000-yard season in 2003. 

While Fournette's weight dominated headlines early in the combine, he had the opportunity to put that story behind him during the workout portion of the combine on Friday. 

Despite a disappointing 28.5-inch vertical, Fournette's 4.51 40-yard dash answered any questions lingering about his ability to remain effective at 240 pounds. 

Florida State's Dalvin Cook, despite weighing in 30 pounds lighter than Fournette, managed to best Fournette's 40-yard dash time by just .01 seconds. 

Fournette's workout was important to prove he's healthy, but the next step will be the medical evaluation to prove that there are no long-term concerns with his health. An ankle injury slowed Fournette during the 2016 season, and NFL teams will need to be assured of his long-term health before finalizing his grade. 

Forrest Lamp

It's tough for offensive linemen to really stand out during the workout portion of the combine, but Western Kentucky's Forrest Lamp emerged as one of the elite athletes in this year's group. 

Bleacher Report's Matt Miller summed up his thoughts on Lamp's impressive day:

Lamp was clocked at 5.00 seconds in the 40-yard dash, the fourth-best time among offensive linemen, according to NFL.com. He also tied for fifth in the three-cone drill, which is a more effective way to gauge an offensive linemen's quickness and agility in short bursts. 

Phil Savage, the executive director of the Senior Bowl, called Lamp's performance the most impressive of the day:

Demonstrating his elite athleticism was key for Lamp, who played left tackle at Western Kentucky but is viewed as a candidate to shift to guard in the NFL. 

Based on his performance at the combine, it now appears clear that Lamp at least has the athleticism to play on the outside in the NFL and could still be given a chance to play tackle at the next level.

Mitchell Trubisky

North Carolina quarterback Mitchell Trubisky hasn't worked out yet, but he has already helped himself, according to some NFL executives. 

Joe Fann, of 49ers.com, passed along this insight from San Francisco 49ers GM John Lynch:

Height isn't the only thing teams look for in a quarterback, but there are certain thresholds many talent elevators prefer to see in a prospect. The fact that Trubisky checked in over 6'2" means there is one less mark in the negatives column of his scouting report. 

Trubisky isn't known for his athleticism, but he could also impress during the workout portion of the combine. He does his best work from the pocket, but North Carolina did call designed runs for him and let Trubisky roll out on occasion. 

With a strong workout on the field, Trubisky could further cement his status as a top-10 pick.
