2017 Draft Prospects

I paid very little attention to college football this year so I just wanna know what you more knowledgeable folks know. Who are the best players coming out, who are the players you want the Skins to draft?

Re: 2017 Draft Prospects

Demarcus Walker is my favorite, but Solomon Thomas is pretty good also. I think both should be available around the time they pick, Thomas is getting more attention now though.

Re: 2017 Draft Prospects

Yea he is starting to get some attention but at pick 17 I dont think Solomon Thomas will be there.

He looks fairly monstrous in this video.

Excellent answer, Thomas had 1 sack, several hurries, and 9 tackles in his bowl game. Before the game it appeared he would be available at # 17. It looks like a decent D line class, so a good one should be available.

The mock drafts are all over the place. And the combine has a big impact on picks, so it is still early.

Also will the new coach play a 4-3 ? Are they looking to replace Baker, or play next to him ? or a DE to replace Smith ?

Here is a good list;

Re: 2017 Draft Prospects

I like all the players everyone else above mentioned. I'd take any of them. Although, is Adams more of a SS type? If so we might not need him if Cravens is moving there. Or can he play FS too?

North Carolina Tar Heels QB Mitch Trubisky declares for NFL draft

Watched a little of him against FSU and was not impressed. People are saying he could go first overall? I dont see it. Switzer though from UNC.. guy's a baller

Re: 2017 Draft Prospects

here is a possible solution to the QB problem with pick #17

NFL Draft - 2017 NFL Draft Prospects - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com

although winning the Power Ball lottery is more likely

Re: 2017 Draft Prospects

Watching Foster, Allen, and Williams played last night has me impressive with the Alabama defensive prospects. I really like both Foster and Allen.

I guess my dream top 5 right now are:

Foster
Thomas
Allen
Adams
Williams

Re: 2017 Draft Prospects

Players I have watched that I want at some point in the draft (I realize at least two out of the three are very unlikely):

1. Dalvin Cook, FSU
2. Solomon Thomas, Stanford
3. Demarcus Walker, FSU

Cook may be there but we need Defense man, he is a guy that I'd love to have but it'll also depend on FA

If we could get Cook in the first and Walker in the second, I would take that.

I know we need defense (desperately), but our red zone efficiency (and offense in general) improves 5x with Dalvin.

Re: 2017 Draft Prospects

Dalvin Cook is the best player in the draft. If he's there at 17, I'd jump all over him.
