Comparing Cleveland Browns Nick Chubb to other top rookie running backs

Nick Chubb has been a great story for the Cleveland Browns this season. The Browns took a chance on the running back out of Georgia with the 35th pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.

The pick was puzzling since the Browns had veteran Duke Johnson on the roster and had recently signed veteran Carlos Hyde. Chubb seemed to be a BPA (Best Player Available) pick with the 35th pick for a team that had some other significant holes to fill.

Chubb put the “best player” in “best player available” for the Cleveland Browns since halfway through the season he has beaten out both of the veterans, causing Hyde to be traded to Jacksonville.
