For the Buffs:

Jeromy Irwin - OT - Midrounds - playing LT - probably better inside at Guard

Issiah Oliver - Best player and athlete on the Buffs as a CB - maybe 1st round talent - many expect him to stay another year and work on his decathlon skills.

Shea Fields - WR - Needs a big season to go high in the draft - he has talent and speed - and began to apply himself last year. Probably draftable.

Bryce Bobo - WR - amazing hands and concentration - has some size - not sure he is a high round draft pick - but with the right season - can be.

Phillip Lindsey - RB - Lindsey "The Tasmanian Devil" he will get a chance at the pros - I'm thinking as a later round or UDFA - because he is both small and not especially fast - he can catch the ball and score TDs. Will likely have a very big season next year.

Derek McCartney - OLB - He has a real chance of being drafted - may prove himself as an edge rusher - was n his way to proving that last year and got an ACL. Expecting a big year from Coach Mac's grandson.

Devin Ross - Slot REceiver - fast with good hands - had a very good season last year - expected more this year - may go mid-rounds.

Afolabi Loguda - Safety - he's a real baller and a team leader - I expect he gets drafted.

Kabian Ento - WR - really came on last season with Winfree's injury - his is tall and goes up and gets the ball. Like the rest of the Buff receives - his fortunes may depend on Steven Montez being a good QB.

Juwann Winfree - WR - Maybe a top pick - but missed last season after CC ball transfer due to injury - many expect him to hang on for another year of eligibility and then potentially snag a top draft slot.

Thanks for list of Buffs. Ross is guy I like.

Going to tell you guys right now...USC Qb Sam Darnold will be the next greatest Qb the NFL will see for the next 10+ years. Unfortunately, our team won't get chance to revel in it. If he plays this year like I expect, there will be some tanking for first pk in 2018 draft . :)

Yep, Darnold will be next greatest.
And Lynch will be greatest!

Maybe I am wrong in my memory.

But is it not crazy that we haven't drafted an Alabama player since Nick Saban took over? Feels like every 7th pick is from Bama, yet no Broncos from Bama drafted since who? Mike Shula era with Ahmaad Galloway?

What's crazy is that the school with the most picks over the years - is Florida.

Could it be because Ozzie and the Ravens are usually picking close before us?! I swear he must not scout any other school. ;)

Shiat, maybe Elway needs to take a page outta Ozzie's drafting skills.

9. Miami Dolphins- Minkah Fitzpatrick, CB, Alabama. Miami comes back to reality this year... They find their stop gap CB's unable to hold up and need Fitzpatrick to go with Xavien Howard.

Tony Lippett might be as good as Xavien Howard soon, and we got Tankersly.

This could be a good year for a NT.

NT, RT, OG are my top 3 projected needs for Miami in 2018

I actually like Lippett. I remember him starting as a DB at Michigan State in a crowded DB field. Moving to WR and blowing up as a SR at WR... Nice to see he and Quinton Dunbar hacking it in the NFL as CB.s.. IMO Tankersly will be pretty average.

OC's favorite movie is "Mr. Limpett," just to save him a post. Mr. Limpett got drafted too - but he ended up swimming with the fishes.

Sometimes I think you're stoned when you post.

Byron Maxwell will have 0 dead cap space after the 2017 season, so he'll be around this season, which means we have a year to bring Tank along. (Cutting Maxwell this year only saves us 3M, and we'd eat 5M)

I think Tankersly should project well as a nickelback. I'd love Christian Wilkins, or maybe Quinton Nelson if we're picking a few spots later. But it's WAY too early to be talking about players being slotted.
