NFL Draft Big Board: Top 50 NFL Draft prospects after bowl season
By Tony Pauline
41. Benny Snell Jr., RB, Kentucky
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Third-year junior
An underrated ball carrier that’s a bit of a throwback. Large but very quick, productive and does the little things well.
42. Deandre Baker, CB, Georgia
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Fourth-year senior
A tough, physical cornerback with marginal size and skill when his back is to the ball.
43. Johnathan Abram, S, Mississippi State
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Fourth-year senior
A hard-hitting safety with an intimidating style. Can line up in a zone system or as a traditional strong safety.
44. Cody Ford, G, Oklahoma
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Third-year junior
Massive college right tackle who projects to guard at the next level. Well-liked in the scouting community.
45. Jawaan Taylor, OT, Florida
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Third-year junior
Developing blocker who could end up in the first round.
46. Julian Love, CB, Notre Dame
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Third-year junior
An outstanding cornerback with next level ball skills but a prospect who may not reach 5-foot-10 when measured.
47. Parris Campbell, WR, Ohio State
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Fifth-year senior
Explosive athlete finally rounding into a good football player. Has the size and vertical speed to develop into a starter at the next level if he keeps progressing.
48. Kyler Murray*, QB, Oklahoma
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Fourth-year junior
Celebrated collegian (Heisman winner) and rare athlete who beats opponents with his arm or legs. Built more like a third down back rather than a quarterback.
49. David Montgomery, RB, Iowa State
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Third-year junior
Another all-purpose ball carrier with a throwback style. Not overly quick or fast but productive as a runner, pass catcher and blocker.
50. Bryce Love, RB, Stanford
- Projected Round: 2
- Year: Fourth-year senior
Uber-productive collegiate back coming off an injury-plagued season. Projects as a solid third-down back at the next level.
