With an ideal mix of balance, speed, and power, Chubb is the best natural runner in the NFL and reminds me a lot of former Ravens running back Jamal Lewis. He's averaged more than 5 yards-per-carry in his career, and has scored 39 total touchdowns in four seasons. In only 14 games last year he surpassed 1,200 yards rushing and scored 9 touchdowns. Only the lack of quality work in the passing game keeps him out the top-5. Catching passes has never been a part of Chubbs' game, even going back to college where he only caught 31 passes in 47 games with the Dawgs, so he won't magically become a dual threat. Even the loss of Kareem Hunt for nine games last season didn't add to his role as a receiver. This Cleveland offense looks monumentally different depending who the quarterback is, but Chubbs' role as the ground and pound element is cemented. It's a good bet he'll see more carries in games with Brissett under center, and have better lanes to run in when and if Watson returns, so he'll produce in either scenario, and still should be treated as a top tier option in standard leagues, and a low-end RB1 in PPR leagues.
