Well now, let me tell ya about this young fella, Donovan Edwards. He’s a fella that’s been making waves over at Michigan, and folks been talking ‘bout him quite a bit. You see, Donovan’s a running back—he’s real good at runnin’, like a deer when it’s gettin’ chased. Played for the Michigan Wolverines, and they’ve been mighty proud of him. Some folks think he’s got a real shot at making it big in the NFL, and that’s what we’re gonna jaw ’bout here.

Now, don’t go thinkin’ that just ’cause he’s got fancy shoes and a shiny uniform that it was easy for him to get where he is. Naw, he worked real hard. Right from the start, back when he was just a freshman, folks noticed this boy had somethin’ special. He wasn’t the biggest, no sir, but he sure had the heart of a lion. Donovan Edwards, he wasn’t just out there for the fun of it. He was workin’ every day, pushin’ himself harder than most. Even in spring training, when the weather’s hot and the sweat pours down, he didn’t let up. Coaches, they saw that and said, “This boy’s got a future!”
His first couple seasons weren’t too bad, but it was in 2022 that Edwards really hit his stride. That year, he ran for 991 yards! That’s a whole lotta ground covered, especially when you’re runnin’ with folks tryin’ to catch ya. And let me tell ya, he didn’t just run fast, he ran smart. He had some moves that made defenders look like they were stuck in the mud. But it wasn’t all just about runnin’ the ball, no sir. Edwards showed he had a strong back, playin’ tough and takin’ hits. He got up every time and kept movin’ forward.
But it ain’t always sunshine and rainbows, no. See, after a season like that, there were folks sayin’ he could go straight into the NFL Draft. He coulda declared, got himself a spot, maybe even a good one. But ya know what? He didn’t. Edwards made the choice to stay back another year at Michigan. He figured he had more to prove, and after that legendary performance in the National Championship, well, some folks thought he might just be waitin’ to go out on top. That was a mighty brave decision, if you ask me.
Some say it was smart, others think he’s takin’ a risk, but either way, it shows somethin’ about Edwards. He’s not just lookin’ for an easy way out. He’s lookin’ to build on what he’s already done, and maybe make himself even better before he takes that big step into the NFL. The NFL Draft? Well, we’re gonna have to wait and see, but I reckon this young fella’s got a real good shot at makin’ it when his time comes.
Now, there’s somethin’ else about Edwards folks been talkin’ about. He might not be the fastest guy out there, but he’s quick enough. See, they say he ran a 4.56 in the 40-yard dash, which ain’t too bad. But some folks think that time’s a bit out of date now. In the NFL, you gotta be quick as a whip if you want to make it, and some folks think Edwards might need to work on that speed a little bit. But if you ask me, it’s not all ‘bout how fast ya run—sometimes it’s ‘bout how much fight you got in ya.
So now, what does all this mean for the 2024 NFL Draft? Well, looks like Edwards has made his mind up, at least for now. He’s gonna stick around and play another season with Michigan, try to get even better, and maybe even lead his team to another big win. He’s got the talent, the work ethic, and the smarts to make it. Whether he gets drafted high or low, there’s no doubt that Donovan Edwards is a name folks will be rememberin’ for a long time.
So, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens next year, but I reckon it’s gonna be a good one for this young man. I sure wouldn’t bet against him.
