Ranking the 50 best NFL Draft prospects fans of college football should be keeping their eyes on Saturday to see who will make an impact on Sundays.
It’s never too early to look to the draft in April, especially with football season beginning. The NFL Draft has almost become a year-round spectacle anyway, so talking draft in September is nearly routine. Big boards are flying off everywhere, and draft enthusiasts have more and more places to look for coverage.
Every draft is different, and each draft has different strengths and weaknesses. The 2017 draft had a ridiculous amount of depth at corner, while the 2018 draft had what many people believe as three to four studs at quarterback.
This year, things change. One of the most important spots to have elite players, the defensive line, is loaded for 2019. Obviously, not all of the players will necessarily declare, but it’s good to know who might. If you are a team looking for pass rush help and help along the interior, this is the draft for you. It will be talked about a lot through this board.
Also, don’t overlook the wide receiver position. The 2014 draft was dynamite when it came to receivers, and the first round saw a lot come off the board. It’s possible we could see that again, with lots of players coming out with great size and explosiveness.
This board will constantly evolve over the season, but it has to start somewhere. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the initial top 50 prospects for the 2019 NFL Draft.
