Blake Corum seems to take a page out of Ben Herbert’s book. Herbert was widely credited for Michigan’s success in the 2023 season, mainly for sculpting the college freshman boys into professional athletes ready to take on the aggressive giants in the pro league. The star running back at Michigan has his mind set on staying true to Herbert’s principles as he makes the final touches to his physique in the process of gearing up for the upcoming 2024 NFL draft.

Blake Corum has been hitting the gym, which was evident by the recent picture of him that went viral. Corum looked jacked in the gym mirror selfie, flaunting his chiseled physique. Fans agreed, commenting, “Corum will be a beast in the NFL!”

After Corum gave the fans a sneak-peak into what was about to come once he steps into the pro league, fans couldn’t contain their excitement in guessing his next team.

Fans’ predictions about Blake Corum in the NFL

Fans swarmed the comment section with several comments about several things. Naturally, some were about the impending draft anticipation of which NFL giant lands the touted RB. “With the 30th pick in the 2024 NFL draft, Ravens Select RUNNING BACK BLAKE CORUM Michigan,” a fan commented, projecting the Baltimore Ravens to be the perfect landing spot for the Michigan alum.

First things first, the Ravens are slim in their cap space, with just around $7 million to spare. This, along with the need of the hour to fill up the vital positions, has become a pressing concern for the franchise. Per a report issued by SI, Baltimore could potentially lose Gus Edwards and JK Dobbins this offseason, so the need for a running back will certainly be there. Hence, landing a straight-out-of-a college-and-a-national-championship talent would not only be feasible for the franchise financially but would also coincide with their Super Bowl-level roster.

However, if Corum does secure a spot under John Harbaugh, it would be the next big talk in the league as Corum has trained under Jim Harbaugh, who is rumored to be harboring intensive competitive feelings towards his brother, the Ravens’ head coach.

Other fans wholeheartedly agreed that the Ravens were the perfect potential landing spot for Blake Corum.

All the while, they still couldn’t stop gaping at his physique.
