Georgia’s winners and losers from early signing period

.

The Georgia Bulldogs signed 25 recruits over the early signing period. Georgia signed an elite recruiting class, but slipped to No. 3 in the rankings behind Texas and Alabama on 247Sports.

Here are some winners and losers from Georgia’s early-signing period.

Winner: Future Georgia WRs

The Georgia Bulldogs will lose Arian Smith, Dominic Lovett, and Colbie Young due to graduation. More receivers could potentially transfer. So, Georgia worked hard to recruit pass catchers.

The Bulldogs signed five-star Talyn Taylor, the sixth-best receiver recruit in the nation. They also signed four 4-stars (CJ Wiley, Landon Roldan, Tyler Williams, Thomas Blackshear). This superb class should help Georgia’s wide receiver depth.

Loser: Future Georgia RBs

Georgia’s toughest offensive loss on early signing day occurred when four-star running back Ousmane Kromah flipped from the Bulldogs to the Florida State Seminoles. Georgia lost the fourth-best running back recruit in the nation. Three-star Bo Walker was the only running back UGA signed.

Even then, the Bulldogs weren’t necessarily on the hunt for too many running backs; Georgia could still have Trevor Etienne for another year, and if he transfers or declares for the draft, Nate Frazier could become the RB1. Still, the loss of Kromah hurts.

Winner: Georgia’s Front Seven
