Early Mel Kiper Jr. NFL Draft rankings light on SEC, Georgia talent
ATHENS — Georgia football has dominated the NFL draft boards the past three seasons with record-breaking draft classes.
Comments
No doubt, more Georgia players will be added as Kiper sees the way this year's players progress. I can see at least 4 players taken in the first round.
Could care less what kiper says. Absolute joke of an "evaluator". Latham, ha, go back and watch how he kept getting blown up by that sophomore. Same man who also probably put Paris Johnson in the 1st round, only to look dumb when he was getting harassed by a 1st year freshman. Next. At least McShay had some sense. But ESPN can't keep anyone on with sense, would cost too much money. So they let clowns stay on TV.
"which could come as a surprise to agents representing safety Javon Bullard and Amarius Mims." Can underclassmen who haven't declared for the draft have agents? IDK. Used to be, before NIL, having an agent wasn't permitted until the player, w/remaining eligibility, declared for the draft. One reason the NFL set up the advisory board to evaluate underclassmen who are interested in renouncing remaining eligibility.
Not surprised at all. I think Kiper has been pretty spot-on the past couple of years with regard to UGA players. I think his assessment of our current team's draft chances is correct. Those assessments may improve as the year goes on, and I hope it does, but that's about right for now. I mean even we can see for ourselves judging by the first two games that no individual player -- with maybe the exception of Malaki Starks -- is setting the world on fire right now. Not even Bowers, although he is likely a Round 1 pick regardless of what does or doesn't happen this season.
Of course, that’s assuming he actually watches the games…..not really sure that he does!
Much like his cohort, Todd McShay…
