Devontae Booker flirted with declaring the 2015 NFL draft, but the running back ultimately opted to return to Utah for his senior season. That's proven to be a wise decision.

Booker is among the top 15 senior prospects for next year's NFL draft, according to NFL.com's Chad Reuter.

The draft analys had some very nice words to say about Booker, the former junior college transfer.

"His combination of power, quickness, elusiveness in the hole, and receiving ability give him an excitement factor lacking from most collegiate backs," wrote Reuter.

The 2015 season hasn't started, and already Booker's decision to return is paying dividends.
