The three juniors all thought they could improve on that. Get ready.
You never know. I always felt like Clowney, Fournette and many others coasted their Junior years in order to avoid injury. At least they didn't appear to play with the same zeal they did as underclassmen.

That is possible... it helps if you have talent stockpiled behind those guys that are working to take their jobs. Nothing hurts your draft stock like losing starts to an underclassman. It's why I think it rarely happens at Bama that guys slack off. If I was one of those lineman, I might want a short term injury the week we play GT... those OL like to try and end careers.

Those guys were much higher ranked/draft grades going into their Juniors years than the guys on Clemson who stayed.
Clowney coulda been a first rounder outta highschool and Fournette after his freshman year.

Is it just me or could the same be said about Guice last year?
