After their impressive performances at last weekend's NFL scouting combine, former Georgia players Nick Chubb and Lorenzo Carter were named to NFL.com's All-Combine team.
Chubb answered any questions scouts had about his knee injury from 2015. He ran a 4.52-second 40-yard dash at 227 pounds. His 38.5-inch vertical jump was fourth-best among running backs, while his 10-foot, 8-inch broad jump ranked second. And Chubb’s 29 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press was tied for the best mark among running backs.
Carter exemplified how similar he is to former Georgia linebacker Leonard Floyd -- a long body who can cover ground quickly. Carter’s 4.5-second 40-yard dash was the second-best time among edge rushers, while his 36-inch vertical jump ranked third. He also set a combine record for edge rushers in the broad jump as he leaped 10 feet, 10 inches.
Several mock drafts have these two players being selected somewhere in the second or third round.
