Before the NFL Combine (definites):

Amari Cooper (Alabama)
Landon Collins (Alabama)
Dante Fowler Jr (Florida)

Possibilities (after the NFL Combine):

Todd Gurley (Georgia)
Sammie Coates (Auburn)
Alvin Dupree (Kentucky)
La'El Collins (LSU)
AJ Cann (South Carolina)
Jalen Collins (LSU)
DJ Humphries (Florida)
Cody Pruitt (Ole Miss)
Benardrick McKinney (Mississippi State)
Shane Ray (Mizzou)

Did I miss anyone? The first are the guys that show up on every 1st Round Mock Draft I have seen (ESPN, CBSSports, Walter Camp, etc), while the next 7 players have shown up on some 1st Round Mock Drafts but not all. I figure that the first 4 will definitely be drafted in the 1st round unless something catastrophic happens. The other guys will make their case at the NFL Combine.

Where do you see these players being draft?

Prewitt has made his way into a 2nd round lock. Will he be a 1st rounder? More than likely not, but team needs + other safeties having awful combines could give him a very small chance. Won't happen though.

Good catch (and welcome back).

I think L collins and Bud Dupree have the best chance at improving their stock into a first round pick. Everyone already knows Coates is a freakish athlete, not sure how much he can really help himself at the combine because athleticism isnt the knock. Jalen Collins shouldn't even run the 40 unless he's confident he can run faster than 4.50. He's a fringe first rounder right now. A bad 40 could see him drop to mid-late second. Good forty (4.35-4.45) will put him in the top 20 depending on what the kids from Florida state run

Benardrick

I'd say he's almost a definite. Most predictions have him going 1st round.

That's a good one. Good 40 and he's potential top 10

La'el Collins is a 1st round lock, many are projecting him a top 10 pick, at worse top 15, don't know why you have him as a "possibility".

I wouldn't be absolutely shocked if he blew up in the combine and somehow snuck in to top 10, but I'm guessing somewhere in the 15-25 range.



I dont anticipate Preston Smith to go first round, but I have seen him in there on some mock drafts. Good combine and maybe but doubtful.

La'El Collins is a 1st round lock.

I don't think Jalen Collins goes in the first.

La'el Collins is a first round lock.

Jalen Collins is almost a first round lock, will be a first round lock after the combine based on size and speed

Only one I disagree with from your list. Humphries is going in the first round barring some unforeseen medical or personal issue that gets uncovered. He's got really good film - particularly later in his career - he's got good size, and he's seen as a high ceiling guy.

He may go in top 20.

The kid from A&M Ogbuehi has to be a possibility right?

Nvm, just read he tore his ACL. Gosh, that's terrible. Feel awful for the kid.

Markus Golden (Missouri) is a possibility but extremely doubtful. I've seen/heard him anywhere from late 1st to 3rd round.
