Tomorrow marks exactly one month until the 2015 NFL Draft kicks off in Chicago.

With that in mind, SDS is taking a closer look at the SEC’s 10 best draft prospects from the current draft class, taking into account last month’s NFL Combine, the ongoing series of on-campus Pro Days, interviews, private workouts and, of course, game film from prospects’ college careers.

Our list begins with one of the most talented and yet one of the most uncertain prospects in the 2015 class:

10. Todd Gurley, RB, Georgia: Gurley may be one of the most talented players in the entire draft class, but he also has a lot working against him. For starters, the torn ACL he’s continuing to rehab raises questions regarding whether he can return to his old, explosive ways. He also plays a position with a diminishing impact and even faster diminishing shelf life at the NFL level, which further harms his draft stock. Expect Gurley to be selected late in the first round by an established Super Bowl contender, and if he recovers well expect him to out-perform this ranking as well.

9. Dorial Green-Beckham, WR, Missouri: Green-Beckham is an absolute athletic freak who stands 6-foot-5, weighs nearly 240 pounds yet ran the 40 in less than 4.5 seconds and posted a vertical jump of 33 inches at the combine. He runs smooth routes and takes long strides, further enhancing his natural speed and allowing him to shake even the most proven cover corners. His long arms, long strides and incredible leaping ability give him one of the widest catch radiuses in the game, and he is as dominant when it comes to hauling in fades and jump balls down the field or in the red zone as any wideout in the draft class. He did not play last season after he was dismissed from Missouri’s football program, and those red flags have followed him through the pre-draft process. Nonetheless, DGB fits the mold of a explosive star wideout at the next level, and that’s hard for NFL teams to pass up.

8. D.J. Humphries, OT, Florida: At 6-foot-5 and 307 pounds, Humphries has the build of a bookend tackle in the NFL. A part of the offensive line exodus from Florida after last season, Humphries is supremely athletic for his build, and he has quick feet that should allow him to transition nicely to the NFL game. Humphries is an aggressive run blocker who obtains leverage at the point of attack and can get to the second level effectively to extend runs to his side of the field. He still has a tendency to lean at the line of scrimmage, which can allow opposing defenders to gain leverage when he is caught in that position, but that shouldn’t deter many teams from adding him to their offensive line.

7. Jalen Collins, DB, LSU: Collins is regarded as one of the top cover corners in the draft class, making him a valuable commodity considering the NFL’s trend toward more pass-happy offenses in recent years. He is long and quick, changes direction and breaks on the ball well, uses his length to break up passes and is as savvy in zone coverages as he is in man to man. He has a reputation of sometimes relying too much on talent and not enough on proper technique in coverage, and his lack of starting experience (10 career starts at LSU) may leave teams desiring more game film, but there’s no question Collins’ standing as a first-round talent.

6. Bud Dupree, DE/LB, Kentucky: Dupree has skyrocketed up a number of draft boards since the end of last season. He entered 2014 as the SEC’s active leader in career sacks, and closed his senior season holding the same title. No SEC alum appeared more athletic for his position during combine and Pro Day workouts than Dupree, who ran a 4.56 second 40-yard dash and displayed a 42-inch vertical leap at the combine despite measuring out at 6-foot-4 and 269 pounds. He has experience playing defensive end with his hand in the ground as well as standing outside linebacker, and that versatility widens the pool of teams interested in Dupree’s services. He can rush off the edge from either position and is even experienced in dropping into coverage from his linebacker spot. He’s still developing a go-to pass rushing move, and he’s still learning to rely less on athleticism and more on skill, but this guy has all the tools to be a superstar in the league for many years.

5. Landon Collins, S, Alabama: A Thorpe Award finalist last season, Collins is a dominant strong safety prospect who admitted late last season he mirrors his game after former Miami Hurricanes and Washington Redskins safety Sean Taylor. He’s a downhill first player who breaks quickly, changes direction quickly and hits hard when pursuing ball-carriers, rarely missing easy tackles. However, he’s not nearly as good when asked to turn his back and drop into coverage, which limits him to primarily a downhill, in-the-box strong safety, at least to begin his NFL career.

4. La’el Collins, OT, LSU: Collins served as one of the SEC’s premier bookend left tackles a year ago, and with his 6-foot-4, 305-pound frame, impressive strength and admirable footwork, he appears poised to continue his excellence at the NFL level. However, Collins is known to struggle with speed rushers off the edge and to occasionally look to engage a pass rusher rather than dropping into protection and waiting to be engaged, which actually leaves him vulnerable to speed rushers or savvy rushers with an array of moves at the point of attack.

3. Shane Ray, DE, Missouri: Ray followed in the footsteps of former Missouri teammate Michael Sam in earning the SEC’s Defensive Player of the Year honor last season, and the conference’s reigning sack leader is projected to go as high as the top 10 of the draft this spring. Ray has already begun bulking up to prove he can play defensive end in a 4-3 scheme, not just outside linebacker in a 3-4 like Mizzou teammate Markus Golden. However, while Ray impressed scouts with his added weight and maintained athleticism, he’s still in the process of learning the craft and becoming more skilled and less reliant on raw athleticism.

2. Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama: Cooper was the best wide receiver in college football last season, and at 6-foot-1 with blazing speed and incredible route-running ability, he seems like a can’t-miss star at the next level. He gets off the line well, which makes him excellent at beating press coverage, and he has wonderful hands that make even the toughest catches in traffic look easy. He’s not as big or physical as a player like Coates, but he’s nearly as fast and far more consistent running every route on the route tree and making plays from any receiver position. Heck, he can even block. There’s a reason this guy is projected to go in the top 10 picks of the draft.

1. Dante Fowler Jr., DE/LB, Florida: Fowler was a pass-rushing nightmare at Florida, and he has the ability to line up at defensive end in a 4-3 or outside linebacker in a 3-4 depending on which team calls his name on draft day. He’s known for his incredible athleticism, but that athleticism is only made more impressive by his strength and sturdiness at the point of attack, which could even allow him to see some time at defensive tackle in certain rush-heavy defensive packages. He must limit how often he over-pursues a play and allow more plays to develop to avoid running himself out of position in relying on his athleticism to make any play on the field, but the more he develops mentally the better he’ll serve as a playmaker in the NFL.
