Plenty of talent at running back in 2018 draft class
THE GEORGIA DUO: Nick Chubb and Sony Michel were prized recruits when they came to Georgia in 2014 and now they’re both among the best running backs available in the 2018 draft class.
Chubb was a freshman sensation, rushing for 1,547 yards and 14 rushing touchdowns. He was on his way to another incredible season as a sophomore until he suffered a devastating, season-ending knee injury midway through the year. Chubb bounced back and was very effective in his final two seasons, but he knew NFL teams would be intent on getting a look at his surgically-repaired knee in Indianapolis.
