Top NFL Draft Prospects in SEC

Is the SEC’s pool of NFL prospective talent the largest it has ever been?

Saying the SEC is the best conference is like saying humans need oxygen to survive, it’s fact. What makes the Southeastern Conference the premier league of collegiate football is the talent of it’s players. This season is no different with a litter of mega-talented draft prospects like Myles Garrett, Jalen Tabor, and Leonard Fournette but who else?

In a recent mock for the 2017 NFL Draft done by Walter Football (http://walterfootball.com/draft2017.php), 29 players from the SEC were predicted to be selected in the first three rounds. Here’s the list:

Myles Garrett DE -Texas A&M

Jalen Tabor CB – Florida

Leonard Fournette RB – LSU

More from Southbound and Down

Tim Williams DE – Alabama

Travin Dural WR – LSU

Chad Kelly QB – Ole Miss

Skai Moore LB – South Carolina

Da’Shawn Hand DL – Alabama

Reuben Foster LB – Alabama

Daeshon Hall DE – Texas A&M

Tony Conner S – Ole Miss

Whether these players will all be selected is unforeseen, but this could be the most talented the SEC has ever been. It’s always good to recognize names on the broadcast week in and week out, so keep your eyes peeled for these play-making draft prospects any given Saturday.
