Vernon Hargreaves III, CB, Florida leads the list of the top non-quarterback prospects for the 2016 NFL Draft. He’s a height-weight-speed guy. Great ball skills. (insert scouting cliche) (insert NFL Draft evaluative process buzzword, catch-phrase) blah blah. blah. buzzword. buzzword.
Hargreaves should be a top guy for sure, maybe top 5. Likely to be the Trae Waynes of the 2016 NFL Draft, but even better. So here’s the rest of the list beyond Vernon Hargreaves. And here at this link you can find our 2016 NFL mock draft. And here’s the list of the top quarterback prospects in the 2016 NFL Draft.
Shilique Calhoun, DE/OLB, Michigan State
lean and athletic, could be this year’s Leonard Williams
Laremy Tunsil, OT, Ole Miss
likely to be this year’s Brandon Scherff
Robert Nkemdiche, DT/DE, Ole Miss
consensus top 10 pick
Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State
if a QB doesn’t go first overall, Bosa will.
Shawn Oakman DE, Baylor
kind of a Dennis Rodman of football- goofy colored hair, outspoken personality
Ronnie Stanley, OT, Notre Dame
could have been a top 15 pick this year; I was shocked he decided to stay.
Jalen Ramsey, S, Florida State
best safety prospect of the past three years- hands down.
