SEC prospects still well-positioned in latest Mayock rankings
By Nick Cole
Published:
Recently, NFL Network Draft Analyst Mike Mayock released the 2.0 version of his positional rankings for April’s NFL Draft.
He ranks the top five prospect at each position, and 18 SEC players made the cut this time.
There is an SEC representative at every position except for safety, which displays the fact that the league had premier players all over the field during the fall.
Of note from this version of the rankings is that Florida CB Vernon Hargreaves moved to the No. 1 CB on the board (he moved Florida State’s Jalen Ramsey to safety).
Also worth noting is that Ole Miss DL Robert Nkemdiche dropped from No. 2 to No. 5 on the interior lineman rankings, and Texas A&M OL Germain Ifedi jumped into the Top 5 on his offensive tackles list.
Here’s a look at where the SEC players ranked at their positions. You can find the Mayock’s full positional rankings here.
