It is that time of the year again and the NFL will once again be opening its doors to fresh talent to beef up the current crop of teams looking for fresh blood.
Hence, all eyes will be on the NFL Draft Combine in Indianapolis where the top prospects come together for a week where each will be closely scrutinized to find out who will be making it to the big league and who may not.
And this early, the upcoming NFL draft holds a bunch of talent that most teams would certainly be interested in getting. Imagine two budding quarterbacks, some wide receivers and a slew of linemen and you know that teams are bound to take in prospects fit for their team needs.
Mock drafts have been made and at the top of the list are names like Jameis Winston, Leonard Williams, Randy Gregory, Amari Cooper and Brandon Scherff lead the cast hopefuls that could be drafted by teams which get first crack.
But down the line comes players which are not bad as well. And these players could be sleepers for teams that will eventually pick from 8th and above.
Shane Ray. The kid possesses boasts of ridiculous speed thanks mainly to a fast first step which the Atlanta Falcons could surely use. With the Falcons finishing dead last, they stand to benefit from a guy like Ray who is gifted with extraordinary speed.
Alvin Dupree. The Bengals could use a guy like Dupree, especially considering that they need someone who can help them improve their pass rush game. The guy posses open field explosiveness although he may not be as lightning fast as Ray.
Melvin Gordon. Gordon's is someone who has the size and speed to help out the Baltimore Ravens. Though the Ravens did manage to impress by finishing eighth in rushing yards last season, all that could change with an aging Justin Forsett. Thus Gordon could be an option. He showed that when he helped carry the Wisconsin Badgers over Auburn from the SEC.
