NFL Draft – Big Board & Complete Position Rankings

3 of 4

Greg Bartram-USA TODAY Sports

16.) LB Ryan Shazier, Ohio St – Versatile, violent hitter and the 2nd best athlete in draft (Clowney).

17.) FS Calvin Pryor, Lousiville – Exciting player, but still needs a little work in pass coverage otherwise he’d be higher.

18.) LB Anthony Barr, UCLA – Raw, but has all the tools to be an elite pass rusher.

19.) TE Eric Ebron, North Carolina – Elite athlete, but drops too many easy ones for me to rank him higher.

20.) LB Dee Ford, Auburn – Tweener, but explosive pass rusher and unblockable at the Senior Bowl.

21.) DE Kony Ealy, Missouri – Great short-area quickness and explosive off the ball, but mediocre productivity a concern.

22.) DT Timmy Jernigan, Florida St – Could be one of best players in the draft if effort is there, wasn’t always last year.

23.) DT Ra’Shed Hageman, Minnesota – Don’t like most of his game tape, but great measurables and flashes of beast mode.

24.) DT Louis Nix, Notre Dame – Would be higher if not for injury / weight concerns. Unique athleticism for a 330 pounder.
