The 2017 NFL Scouting Combine is upon us, meaning that draft season is about to hit a feverish pitch. Armed with vital health information, interview impressions, and workout results, scouts and draft analysts everywhere will begin to dive into specific targets for each team.
We already know that the needs for the Dallas Cowboys line up nicely with some of the best prospects in this draft, and I’ve highlighted these well-known prospects in my “Draft Targets” series.
Based on their upcoming Scouting Combine performances though, here are five players you might need to start considering as future members of America’s Team.
Use the arrows to get started.
Zay Jones will be a Day-2 pick in the draft. I won’t make it out of the 3rd round.
Thank you for reading, Kevin. I’m happy to be wrong about Jones, seeing a lot of analysts really like him, but I just don’t see a player set up to succeed in the NFL. Caught everything at ECU though, tough pro evaluation.
Small school players are always the hardest to gauge. Out of all the positions on the field though, it seems WR succeeds the most from the small schools. If the skills are there, they seem to thrive. Other positions are littered with failed experiments. Still, no guarantee either way, but with certain teams always in love with small school prospects, I can’t see Jones make it to day 3.
