The Q Collar: What Athletes and NFL Players Wear Around Their Neck Explained!
(USC) Quarterback Caleb Williams
Overall Draft Range: First to Second
The ability of Williams to improvise and play with both legs and arms has led to comparisons with Patrick Mahomes. Teams will likely choose him first or second round, regardless of whether he meets expectations.
Skill Position: Ohio State Marvin Harrison Jr. Draft Range: Top Five
He shares numerous of the exceptional qualities that his father possessed, albeit at 6 feet 4 and 208 pounds, as the progeny of a great wide receiver. With his exceptional route runner abilities and dependable hands, Harrison Jr. will be a league-leading wide receiver in the future. He could be selected first overall in the NFL Draft, the first since Calvin Johnson in 2007.
Draft Range for Joe Alt’s (Notre Dame) Offensive Line: 5 to 10
One of the most technically proficient linemen to emerge from college in recent years is Joe Alt, who stands 6 feet 7 inches and weighs 322 pounds. Upon entering the NFL, Alt should be able to establish himself at either tackle position as an immediate starter.
Jer’Zhan Newton (Illinois) Defensive Line Draft Range: Top 15
The diminutive defensive tackle Jer’Zhan Newton possesses the potential to be a top interior pass rusher in the league. His outstanding technical foundation at Illinois would make him a valuable member of a defensive team that pressures the quarterback.
Clemson linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Draft Scope: Second to Third Rounds
Although this year has not been ideal for drafting linebackers, a few names stand out, and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. of Clemson stands out above the rest on draft boards. While Trotter Jr. may not be the most formidable linebacker, he does exhibit some resistance to the run. His football understanding should help him make an impact in a league dominated by elite quarterbacks.
Terrion Arnold (Alabama), secondary, draft range: top fifteen
Despite switching from safety to cornerback last season, Terrion Arnold emerged as a national leader. As a CB1, Arnold still needs to improve in other areas despite his size and top-line speed.
