*****
1. DE Kayvon Thibodeaux, Oregon
The best edge rusher in the country and possibly the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft next year has to be in the elite 99 club.
*****Â Â
2. LB Drake Jackson, USC
Despite a few issues adjusting to linebacker, his ability off the edge and athleticism make him a terror in the game.
*****Â Â
3. QB Kedon Slovis, USC
I like Slovis better than most and think he’s a legit first-round talent and a potential franchise guy in any game.
*****Â Â
4. QB Jayden Daniels, Arizona State
Daniels is efficient and won’t make a ton of mistakes. Running with him in a video game would be fun.
*****Â Â
5. LB Devin Lloyd, Utah
A sure tackler and a steady and smart player, he’d be one of the leading tacklers in any video game.
*****Â Â
6. CB Trent McDuffie, Washington
He’s instinctive and aggressive, but he has good recovery speed as well.
*****Â Â
7. WR Drake London, USC
This rating might be low based on his potential and ceiling with that frame and catch radius.
*****Â Â
8. RB Max Borghi, Washington State
He’s a do-everything guy who is hard to get a hit on and carries the offense.
*****Â Â
9. OL Jaxson Kirkland, WashingtonÂ
He could be the best offensive lineman you’ve never heard of, and this could be a very low ranking. We will see.
*****
10. CB Mykael Wright, OregonÂ
He’s somewhat long and very explosive. He's fast and has elite ball skills.
