8. Chuba Hubbard, Oklahoma State

Few players have had the production that Chuba Hubbard has had this season. With nearly 2,000 yards rushing and 21 touchdowns, he became one of the most exciting players in all of college football. He has a combination of speed and vision that make him a homerun threat on any play.

Hubbard could very well be on his way to New York with the likes of Joe Burrow, Justin Fields, and Jalen Hurts as a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. He has been the most productive back in college football this season, but what does he display on film?

Hubbard shows off his explosive ability here. Once he’s into the second level, he is a nightmare for defenders, who aren’t likely to catch him from behind. He navigates in traffic well, and finds the right lane to run through.

Hubbard needs to work on his blocking, as he isn’t very good at it right now. His inability to block on third down could keep him from being drafted in the first two rounds. However, his talent with the football in his hands is obvious, and there’s no reason he shouldn’t be taken by the end of round three at the latest.
