Dramekco Green, SMU RB: the 2026 season story
Dramekco Green is a sophomore running back for SMU (ACC). He ranks 450th of 575 running backs in Division I by the Player Index, which judges every running back on the measures that matter at the position, adjusted for the opponents he faced.
Scouting report
Why it matters. Every measure is set against every ranked running back, so a strength here is a strength against the whole position, not just his own team. Dramekco Green's strongest measure is receiving yards per game at 16, 42nd of 299 (the average is 9). His weakest is runs of 10+ at 5%, 290th of 299 (the average is 13%).
Season production
Why it matters. Volume is the first sign of how much a coaching staff trusts a player. His rush yards per game, 23, ranks 279th among 299 ranked running backs.
Against every running back
Why it matters. Volume, efficiency and impact plays can tell different stories: a player can be busy without being effective, or rarely used but dangerous every time. Among ranked running backs he sits, on average, in the 47th percentile for volume, 20th for efficiency and 9th for impact.
The season, game by game
Why it matters. Consistency matters to a team: one huge game and five quiet ones is a different season from six solid ones. Over 5 games, Dramekco Green's best came in week 10 against Virginia Tech and his quietest in week 3 at Louisville.
When it matters
Why it matters. Third downs, the red zone and games against good teams are where drives and seasons are decided.
Where he does his damage
Why it matters. The shape of a player's production, not just its size, is what opponents scout.
National and conference
Why it matters. The Player Index puts every running back on one scale, adjusted for the defenses or offenses he faced, so a rank here is comparable across conferences. Dramekco Green is 282nd of 299 FBS running backs and 33rd of 36 in the ACC. Next up nationally is Tory Blaylock of Oklahoma, 0.01 ahead on the index.
Running backs like him
Why it matters. Players with similar profiles tend to be used the same way, which makes them a quick way to picture his game. His closest match this season is Cody Blicharz of Drake.
