People think it’s all hype, but I’ll say this may be one of the greatest offensive classes of all time. TE prospects like A.O., Bryce Hopkins, and Jared Pinkey are looking like they could be solid starters, if not some really interesting prospects.
I thought I read a couple times that it's a weak te class? I have no clue, just what I read.
It is weak at TE. The class should be strong at WR & RB. But some injuries or weak seasons will push some guys down. For instance so far Colin Johnson & Tyler Johnson have not performed to expectations for a couple guys that went back for their senior seasons.

Love this class, but, a lot of the big horses were playing cupcakes. Maybe wait a little yet and see more on some guys

Najee Harris has 4 catches for 76yards and 2 TDs at the half

I took him late 1st rd in my first Devy draft this offseason, feeling pretty good about it.

Is it still strong at RB or cooling off? I look at mock drafts weekly not believing teams will actually choose those players but just watching which players the public think are rising and dropping week to week.

But it seems the RB class is dropping. I don't see any top 10 RB and only a few are at the end of the 1st round with some like the latest CBS mock draft that has no RB in the first round.

What do you guys think?

I think it's safe to assume that in the current climate, there won't be more than 1-2 RB in the first and maybe zero depending on the team need and such. I still think the class looks very strong. Definitely stronger than 2019.

Tua shredded South Carolina. Kind of a disappointing outing for Jeudy, considering Tua's numbers. I like JJ, but I'm not sure he is actually the better college player vs Amari Cooper (when talking about recent Alabama WR's). Which isn't a bad thing. He's a better prospect than Calvin Ridley, for sure. Coop was an awesome college prospect. It's pretty close, IMO, but I think Cooper has the slight edge. I think Jeudy will be a good NFL WR, just like Coop. He's very safe, based on his skill set.

I could see two or three rbs being drafted in the first round of the 2020 draft. Most the mocks that I have seen rbs being drafted in the first are swift and Taylor. It is way to soon to say how many will be drafted in the first round for sure but their should at least be a couple most likely the two I mentioned above but I wouldn't be surprised if a third rb was drafted in the first round. I have not seen a rb class this deep and talented in a while. Oh and if their was a third rb drafted in the first round I would put my money on Chuba, Akers, or Dobbins just to name a few

Chuba is a sophomore. I don't see Akers going in the first. Dobbins maybe, if he lights it up this year. He was better as a freshman, so it's important for him to have a good junior year. He put up some big numbers today.

If he’s a RS sophomore then yes he is eligible.

Circling back to who could be a 1st rounder, do we not think Travis Etienne has a shot?

Those are strong words as the past few rb classes (not this current one but the few before) have been historically good.

OSU fan here. Redshirt soph. He's eligible. Im interested to see how this turns out. He's little taller and slender than I might like as a RB but he's FAST. If he can put on weight and maintain his speed I'll be very excited. He's also catching it well when he gets the chance so a transition to WR may not be out of the question (similar to Tyreek, though different body types obviously)

Strange that ESPN doesn't list that he's a RS, and none of the publications like Walter Football have him as part of the class. Maybe the think he stays? The team page for the University does indeed list him as a RS. I can't see him being a first rounder, though. I am interested to see how Ke'shawn Vaughn tests at the combine, he looks like he has some juice at his size. Not a first rounder, but a guy to keep an eye on.
