Robert Nkemdiche’s draft stock may be plummeting after his fall from a window, but his talent will make him nearly impossible to resist in the first round.

Ole Miss defensive lineman Robert Nkemdiche has been a big name since signing with the Rebels as the No. 1 recruit in the nation in 2013. He has lived up to his hype throughout his college career and helped Ole Miss become one of the top defenses in the nation. This has helped him become a surefire first-round pick for the 2016 NFL Draft.

At least it seemed that way earlier in the year, but Nkemdiche was recently charged with marijuana possession after falling from a hotel window. This caused him to become investigated for foul play, and it was confirmed that he had marijuana on him. Due to his latest troubles, Nkemdiche may very well experience a draft free fall like Randy Gregory and Shane Ray.

However, his talent alone will make him a lock to at least be drafted in the second round. It would be a shocker if Nkemdiche fell out of the first round at this point though because he is one of the biggest names heading into the draft. Here are five teams that should definitely take a chance on the defensive lineman despite his red flags.
