The South Carolina Gamecocks have 11 players representing the program at the NFL scouting combine this week and one of them is running back Raheim Sanders. The former Gamecock is set to compete at the combine on Saturday.
According to NFL Mock Draft Database, Sanders is projected as a sixth round pick in this year's NFL draft. The running back class is littered with talent with names like Ashton Jeanty from Boise State, Dylan Sampson from Tennessee, Kaleb Johnson from Iowa and Treveyon Henderson from Ohio State.
The combine will be a big opportunity for Sanders to increase his draft stock ahead of the NFL draft on top of what he does at South Carolina's pro day.

Sanders elected to transfer to South Carolina ahead of the 2024 season from Arkansas. Last year, he rushed for 881 yards, 11 touchdowns and 4.8 yards per carry. He proved to be a valuable asset to multiple SEC offenses in his career and now he looks to continue that at the NFL level.
