Posted Mar 2, 2021
Two UNC football stars are about to star in the NFL. Pro Football Focus has Michael Carter and Javonte Williams ranked in their top-four running backs in the 2021 NFL draft. Williams is a riser, according to PFF, and could creep close to be the top running back taken overall. Williams has gone from middle-round draft pick to an early day 2, at worst. (Keeping It Heel)
