20. Vic Beasley, DE – Clemson:

Clemson’s speedy defensive end has been an absolute beast at the collegiate level. He boasts a plethora of moves when coming around the end and has just enough size for outside linebacker in the NFL. Beasley has recorded a sack in every game this year but one and he’s one of those players with motors that never quit. Look for him to be making plays on Sundays soon.

19. Tony Lippett, WR – Michigan State:

Lippett is one of the best possession receivers in all of college football. He’s shown great ability to go up and use his hands to catch the ball (he doesn’t rely on trapping the ball with his body). He’s tall at six foot three, but still has good speed and is often times very hard to bring down in the open field. This year he has caught eight touchdowns and ran in another. The senior is ready for the next level.

18. Jared Goff, QB – California:
Cal’s sophomore quarterback is already showing signs that he can be successful at the next level. He’s a traditional pocket-passer with a big arm and has NFL size (six foot four). Although, he can take off an run better than people give him credit for, too. In 2014 he’s thrown for 26 touchdowns and only four interceptions. He had a seven touchdown game against Colorado, too. One day Goff is going to be a stud in the pros.

17. Gerod Holliman, S – Louisville:

Holliman is only a sophomore, but he’s already routinely demonstrating why he’s an elite talent. In 2014 he’s been an absolute ballhawk and has recorded eight interceptions — at least one in every game but one this year. He has prototypical NFL safety size and he has time to add a few more pounds to his frame as well. Holliman’s not headed to the NFL yet, but when he does he’s going to thrive there.

16. Tajae Sharpe, WR – UMass:

The Minutemen’s most explosive player is their junior wide receiver. He has great size at 6 foot 4, but also possesses elite speed. He definitely has a chance to excel at the next level in the right offense. Sharpe is averaging an impressive 15.9 yards per catch and is nearing the 1,000 yard mark. Despite the fact that UMass isn’t a traditional football power he has all the potential in the world.
