Michigan football isn’t in desperate need of a running back in 2021, however, one of the top players in the state of Michigan is running back Donovan Edwards and for a long time, the Wolverines seemed to be the team to beat.
And Edwards isn’t just the normal four-star running back. He’s more like another Zach Charbonnet, a top 50 overall recruit and top-five running back. Edwards is ranked 38th overall according to the 247 sports composite rankings. He’s the third-ranked running back and 5-foot-11, 195-pounder is also the No. 2 prospect in the state.
