First time poster here, no need to panic...

Question: Who on the current roster (Seniors/Juniors) do you feel has a good chance of being drafted next year based off talent and small sample of production..?

Jefferson will get a shot. And I think Gray has a chance.

He's undersized, which ordinarily probably takes him off the 'likely' NFL list, but his hands are so damn strong. I think a guy like that with the right effort and attitude, can at least get a look. The NFL is littered with smallish guys who can make an impact. He's probably going to have to live in the middle of the field. But dude can catch.

Jefferson. Possibly Calvin I suppose.

Ross and Gray have a chance to be late round picks at some point.

****. That's kind of sobering. There isn't anyone that makes you say, they're getting drafted I don't think. I'm guessing our new TE will have a shot at getting drafted based on his measurables. Jefferson should get drafted based on his performance but I get that maybe he's viewed as a tweener. I'd hope Ross gets a shot. Nick James should have the measurables?

After that, it's just players that are solid enough to maybe get invites to training camp. Richie Brown? Gray? Clayborne?

RBrown, Jefferson, James, Calvin, Ross. Coleman could be grouped in there once healthy.

eta: Coleman not Calvin

Jefferson, Calvin, RBrown, Ross, Nick James, and Clayborn are the only ones I see with any chance.

Gray is a junior I believe. I can't imagine there being a single person on this team that will leave early after this season.

Unfortunately, 20-year old athletes tend to ignore those cautionary tales.
