1st- Myles Jack LB UCLA- I'm sticking with Jack for now. The idea of having a possible Brian Urlacher in the middle of our D is too enticing for me. Jack brings versatility and playmaking to a D that is severely lacking in both categories. Our Nickle D with Lee, Jack, and Byron would be incredible.
2nd- Josh Doctson WR TCU- Not going to be the biggest or fastest WR but he flat out makes play. Uses his long arms and height to high point the ball and snatch it out of the air before the small cb has a chance to make a play on the ball. Fluid athlete with great body control to make catches in a huge radius. Soft hands and catches everything. Would bring a different dimension to the offense that TWIll just can't.
3rd- Adolphis Washington DT Ohio State- 6'4 297 pound with the frame to keep packing on weight. Good enough burst to beat guards inside and shows a good swim move that consistently gets him in the backfield. Long 34" arms that he uses well to keep o lineman off of him. Versatile and can play both the 1 and 3 tech for us.
4th- Jordan Howard RB Indiana- Love watching a RB that consistently hits defenders before they hit him. Howard is a big back at 6'1 225 with good vision and enough speed to break off big chunks. Averaged a ridiculous 6.2 YPC in his 1st year in the Big 10. Not the flashiest back but he's got 4+ YPC written all over him every year.
Comp- Eric Murray CB Minnesota- Tough, physical corner with a never quit attitude. Probably won't test as an elite athlete and he isn't 6'+ but I see him as good enough in all categories. His aggressiveness causes him to get "handsy" but if he can cut that down he has starter potential.
6th- Kyle Friend G Temple- Gotta keep adding pieces to the line...Friend is a 4 year starter with the kind of toughness and smarts the coaching staff will love. Can play either G or C so would be a valuable backup.
Comp- TJ Green S Clemson- Why did Green go pro this year? Who knows, but there is definitely potential here in a late round pick. He was a lightly recruited WR out of HS who didn't make the change to D until his sophomore year. To his credit he was the 2nd leading tackler on a great clemson team this year, but he clearly isn't ready to play the S position in the NFL yet. He's a project but worth the risk.
