Other than Robert Nkemdiche, Laremy Tunsil, Justin Bell, Tony Connor and Laquon Treadwell going in Round 1, who else gets drafted?

A lot of guys have the potential to be.

He'll probably be a late round MLB pickup. I wonder how high Ward goes with a good year.

Possibly Tee and Tony if they have the kind of season people are expecting.

CJ, D Haynes if he has a great year and leaves early, Fadol Brown, Isaac Gross (can the NFL find another position for him because i don't think he's an nfl nose tackle), one of the new corners if they do really well. DJ Jones if he really shows out. The new guys would only have one year of tape for the scouts to look at so i think they come back though. Evan Engram might be a Jimmy Graham type TE or an nfl wr.

TnT have first round potential which is scary to think about... I have the biggest gut feeling CJ is about to wreck shite at MLB, leading to a mid draft pick

Trae might see a pick... Regardless, there's going to be a lot of Rebs drafted and even more Free Agents in 2016

He's technically a third year, right? Played a year at prep?

Engram is the most interesting to me. He has a place in the NFL but the majority of teams are still looking at more prototypical guys like Maxx Williams and that Miami kid. If he bulks up without losing speed, he'll be a valuable player in the League.

Engram can be a perfect FLEX for NE in the pros. He's built like Aaron Hernandez. Teams will slobber over Engram.

CJ will not get drafted and if he does it'll be 6-7 round.

Elston is a 6-7 round guy. Tony will go 2nd round.

Am I the only one that noticed Justin Bell or am I the only one that's willing to acknowledge it?

Could Issac Gross make a squad or is he just to small? I think he has a shot if he shows out at the Combine.

I noticed it, but it was expected, as he'll likely be a Green Room attendee at the draft.

Because he single handedly caused about 300 negative rushing yards last year.

I suspect we will only have 2 first rounders. Gun to my head, it's Nkemdiche and Tunsil. Connor not having experience as a true safety probably relegates him to the 2nd/3rd round. WRs are a crapshoot in the draft. Treadwell was borderline great last year, he will need to take the next step and dominate games this year, which may be difficult considering our QB situation. Otherwise he will be passed up for workout warriors because Treadwell isn't running less than 4.55 or so. I think Tee could be a first rounder. Bridges will need a year. He is too aggressive at the moment, I imagine he will get beat on some double-moves this year. CJ is a free agent pick-up at best. I really hope Mike Hilton gets a combine invite and runs well and signs with someone. Engram could be a late draft pick-up depending on how he runs but I think Engram will be a true slot in the NFL and not a TE. Hernandez and Engram aren't built anything alike. Hernandez is built like a fullback and Engram is just a bigger WR. Channing Ward will be a workout monster and sign with someone.

I am sure I am forgetting someone.
