The NFL Draft is a full year away, but that didn't stop Bleacher Report's Matt Miller from dropping his loaded top-five players for the 2017 NFL Draft.
No. 5 Auburn DE Carl Lawson
No. 4 Alabama DE Jonathan Allen
No. 3 Stanford RB Christian McCaffrey
No. 2 Clemson QB DeShaun Watson
No. 1 LSU RB Leonard Fournette
We saw what happened after Cardale Jones went back to school last year and his stock plummeted. But the trio at the top of next year's class projects to be elite talent with the shifty McCaffrey, the big arm of Watson and the bulldozing mentality of Fournette. If Georgia's Nick Chubb can get healthy, despite all the talk of the value of running backs dropping, we could see three backs taken in the top 10.
