RB
Lew Nichols III
Central Michigan
Pre-Draft Analysis
Nichols is a big back and patient runner who weaves in and out of gaps between the tackles. He runs with great determination and good forward lean. He led the FBS in rushing yards per game in 2021 when he was surrounded by a stronger supporting cast and was healthier. Nichols has the potential to develop into a reliable check-down option in the passing game. -- Steve Muench
