Sony  Michel was impressive enough for Bill Belichick to use a New England Patriots first-round pick on the RB. One of the most amazing nuggets in Georgia football history is Michel, Nick Chubb and Todd Gurley all were on the team in the same season, 2014. That year, Michel had 64 carries for 410 yards. He surged over the 1,000-yard mark as a sophomore and wound up with 3,631 yards on a 6.1 yard per carry average in four seasons. Michel is approaching the 1,500-yard mark as a pro.
