Jennings
Vickers
Kongbo
Mosley (late round)
TKjr

You're right. It is early.

TKjr.. tweener.. long shot
Mosely- has been awful at times

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

Darrin Kirkland Jr.
Kendal Vickers
Ethan Wolf
John Kelly
Jauan Jennings

These 5 are the most likely to get drafted if the draft was held today. However, we have many other guys on the team with NFL potential but they have to prove it.

jashon, ethan, coleman, TK will all be on NFL radar. DK i think is the only junior who might leave early

Kendal Vickers did more than all those guys you named last season. Folks are really underrating him. He's a starting caliber NFL player. Reminds me of Ray McDonald (former Gator and 49er).

I think he drafted in the middle rounds next year.

TKjr is not an NFL player right now. Lacks the speed and athleticism necessary to play safety. Wolf has more natural gifts than Vickers that will ultimately help him get drafted earlier but that doesn't mean he's done more right now. Until our o-line improves Jashon and Coleman don't even deserve to be mentioned. They would be lucky to get free agent contracts IMO.

I think Wolf would go very late.

Also, I think Kongbo will get drafted on measurables alone and he'll be a project. That's assuming he doesn't improve this season which i think he can have a breakout season.

Wolf will need to dramatically up his game to get drafted. Nice player, but not NFL yet- NFL potential however. It seems to be up to him on how great he can be.

Agree in principle. I'd take it one step further and question his physical ability and whether or not it translates to the NFL. I'm not sure, am leaning no at the moment.

If Kongbo has an absolutely break out season this year with 10+ sacks, D4H and Kiper/Mcshay will be praising him as the next Clowney.

 

[amillz]

If Kongbo racks up 9+ sacks then he will be a 1st round pick on measure ables alone.

If Robertson stays healthy and has a good season he could be a mid round pick, his health is his biggest issue imo.

I'm pulling for Mosley due to his experience and I'm thinking Warren might teach him how to turn his head.

He is listed at 6'6/ 245. He has the frame, just needs to add muscle

Wait a minute what? On measurables alone? Kongbo is not on the Clowney/Garret level of freakish athletic skills. He would have to put up a monster season to become a first rounder. He just doesnt possess those natural, freakish talents.

I think Jashon will get drafted if he stays healthy. Mosley? I just dont see it. Maybe he can turn it around and have a great season but I am not banking on it.

Wolf has NFL measurables. I bet he has a big year next year. But even if he doesn't I believe his NFL stock is higher than most believe.

you cant blame the whole o line on coleman and jashon both have had more impressive careers then vickers. and i disagree on TK he has size and is a ball hawk that can tackle. NFL defenses will find a spot for him

Not physical size, physical ability.

His speed need to improve

His speed need to improve

And his hands and his blocking
