DT Hebron Fangupo, BYU: With only 22 tackles at press time (including 5.5 tackles for loss), Fangupo lacks the statistics to convince anyone that he's a future NFL standout. Following his transfer from Southern California, however, the 6-1, 330-pound Fangupo has quietly emerged as one of the country's top run stuffers. Scouts love his power and intensity and feel that he's one of the more underrated defensive linemen in a senior class lacking standouts. Fangupo's ability to hold up against double-team blocking makes him equally attractive to teams operating out of a three- or four-man front.
QB Jordan Jefferson, LSU: Considering that he's the starting quarterback for the No. 1 team in the country, Jefferson is easily the most recognizable name on this list. Even so, many question whether Jefferson will be able to transfer his skills to the pro game. With Michael Vick, Cam Newton and Tim Tebow proving how dangerous mobile quarterbacks with strong arms can be, don't be surprised if a team is willing to look past Jefferson's career 59 percent completion percentage and instead focus on the 6-4, 223 pound senior's upside. Jefferson may never develop into an NFL starting quarterback, but his ability to challenge defenses with his feet as well as his arm could make him a valuable addition to a team willing to think outside of the box.
