PFF - Top Returning RBs
Can't believe there isn't at least 1 other SEC RB. Also, guessing this came out assuming Etienne was leaving. So everyone will bump back a spot.
1. NAJEE HARRIS, ALABAMA
Third-year back Harris opted to return to Tuscaloosa for his senior season and eyes set on bringing home another national title as well as being the first running back off the board in 2021. Harris’ two-year PFF rushing grade ranks behind only Travis Etienne, Jonathan Taylor and Zack Moss. He benefited this past year by running behind the fourth highest-graded run-blocking unit in the country, but he took advantage of that by producing a first down or touchdown on 39.2% of his carries – the second best in the FBS. It’s been said numerous times by various PFF analysts that what separates a valuable running back from a replaceable one is what they bring to the table in the receiving game. Harris vastly improved upon this aspect from a year ago, hauling in 27 catches for seven touchdowns (five were in red zone) while breaking 11 tackles.

Are you going to do the QB thread? It’s going to be 10 pages long.

Was it actually 3 weeks ago or is that just an estimation? Because Fromm only declared last Thursday.

Well I might be wrong, but I think now Newman is the #1 in the SEC according to PFF. That’s why I asked.

How does Oklahoma have 3 on the list??

It’s too easy as a Georgia fan now. All I have to is mention Jamie Newman or George Pickens and I get a quick dozen downvotes.

They had 2 guys get hurt, so they had 3 guys get pretty significant PT throughout the year
So I guess PFF thinks they were all good when they played

No Rakeem Boyd is ridiculous

Harris is a stud, but I am surprised Etienne didn’t get the 1 spot.

He's not on there anywhere so I'm guessing they assumed he was gone.
I think they had Ettiene ahead of Najee and Hubbard.

He's another one I think they had listed as gone when it was released since he had declared.

Rakeem Boyd is the best RB in the SEC, we just had the dumbass Aubie OC.

Is Najoah the guy that didn’t finish in the Top 24 rushers this year?
