3. Sony Michel

Sony Michel was an absolute beast in his rookie season. His performance in the Super Bowl was the cherry on top to an amazing start to his career.

Michel ran the ball down the LA Rams throat. The Rams have one of the best front sevens in the entire NFL, but Michel showed why he is such a talented back.

In the Super Bowl Michel had 18 carries for 94 yards and a touchdown. He was one of the more dominating players on the field.

Michel proved that he was worth the 1st round pick and that he is a star in the making. The Patriots have finally found the perfect mix of power and speed.

In recent history, the Patriots have had to use a running back by committee approach. Now they can continually hand the ball off to Michel. He proved that he can be relied on this season.
