Fromm, who grew up in Warner Robins, Georgia, led the Bulldogs to a 35-6 record during his 41 career starts with the program. The 6-foot-2-inch quarterback finished his college career with 8,236 passing yards, 81 total touchdowns and 18 interceptions.

ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. currently ranks Fromm as the fifth-best quarterback eligible for the 2020 draft, behind names such as LSU's Joe Burrow and Alabama's Tua Tagovailoa.

Fromm is the fifth Georgia player to declare for the 2020 draft, joining star running back D'Andre Swift and three offensive linemen.

The quarterback position is officially up in the air for the Bulldogs going into 2020. Backup Stetson Bennett played sparingly during the past season and quarterback D'Wan Mathis had emergency brain surgery in May.

Georgia is expected to explore the graduate transfer market for a replacement.
