What to expect from new Georgia Bulldog: RB D’Andre Swift

Expectations at Georgia:

I expect Swift to be the next big time running back to come to Running Back University. After Michel and Chubb leave Swift should be the first back in line to take over as the starter. Swift has the chance to be a top 5 running back all time at Georgia and the potential to be the best back in his draft class.

I would compare D’Andre to Thomas Brown and/or Dalvin Cook. Both of these were small compact backs that could catch out of the backfield but also run between the tackles. Swift is actually right between Brown and Cook in the height range, and he is also over the 200lb mark as well.

D’Andre could also be the first back since Herschel Walker to win the Heisman for the University of Georgia. This would be impacted on who Georgia brings in at running back in the class of 2018. But if Swift is the starter for Georgia, he could run away with the Heisman, due to his ability to do it all from the running back position.
