Ole Miss and coach Hugh Freeze should assume full-fledged “win now” mode this season.

The famed Rebels class of 2013, including potential first-rounders Laremy Tunsil, Robert Nkemdiche and Laquon Treadwell, could send as many as four players into the NFL draft one year early next season.

RELATED: Revisiting the SEC’s early draft entries in ’15

Alabama and LSU each should field several players in ’15 that will face “return to college or head to the NFL” decisions after the season as well.

The SEC averages 21.4 early entries per year in the last five years. Here are a few players who could at least consider entering the NFL draft after the 2015 season.

QUARTERBACK

  • Jeremy Johnson, Auburn

Johnson, the same height, weight and (40-yard dash) speed as Cam Newton, could produce a huge season for the Tigers this fall. It wouldn’t be shocking to see him become the SEC’s buzzy quarterback entering the 2016 draft, but I still think he’ll return for one more season considering how much the NFL values starting experience at the position.

RUNNING BACK

  • Derrick Henry, Alabama
  • Alex Collins, Arkansas
  • Kelvin Taylor, Florida

A whopping seven SEC running backs left early after the ’15 season. More than any other position, it’s a “get it while you can” type of job at the NFL level. A whopping seven SEC running backs entered the draft early in ’15. We shouldn’t see that many follow suit in ’16, but I think all three of these players will enter the draft in January.

RECEIVER

  • Laquon Treadwell, Ole Miss
  • Travin Dural, LSU
  • Marquez North, Tennessee
  • Pharoh Cooper, South Carolina

If Treadwell returns to health, he has a chance to become the top receiver taken in next year’s draft. Dural briefly flirted with the NFL draft this year. Cooper could be a superstar for the second consecutive year. Tim Tebow aside, there aren’t many three-year SEC superstars, so he could go as well.

TIGHT END

  • O.J. Howard, Alabama
  • Hunter Henry, Arkansas

Howard may get more targets on an NFL team than he does in Tuscaloosa. Arkansas wouldn’t be all that devastated if Henry left after the year because coach Bret Bielema collects (hoards?) tight ends every signing day.

OFFENSIVE TACKLES

  • Laremy Tunsil, Ole Miss
  • Germain Ifedi, Texas A&M
  • Jerald Hawkins, LSU

Tunsil has a chance to become the No. 1 overall pick. Ifedi may be A&M’s best shot at a sixth consecutive year with at least one first-round pick. Hawkins attends LSU, which means seemingly any eligible player with a legitimate shot at getting drafted gives the NFL serious consideration.

INTERIOR OL

None.

DEFENSIVE END

  • Alex McCalister, Florida
  • Carl Lawson, Auburn
  • Jonathan Allen, Alabama

McCalister could be the SEC breakout player of the year on defense, and Lawson could be the comeback player of the year. Allen has an opportunity to become an All-SEC defensive lineman in back-to-back years.

DEFENSIVE TACKLE

  • Robert Nkemdiche, Ole Miss
  • A’Shawn Robinson, Alabama
  • Chris Jones, Mississippi State
  • Harold Brantley, Missouri

If his teammate Tunsil isn’t the No. 1 overall selection, Nkemdiche could claim that honor just as easily. The three other players on this list have NFL type athleticism and could star on good defensive lines this season.

INSIDE LINEBACKER

  • Kendell Beckwith, LSU
  • Reuben Foster, Alabama
  • Reggie Carter, Georgia

At least one of these players will return to his respective SEC team for the ’16 season, if not more. I see Beckwith as the most likely candidate to enter the draft, but all three of them could give it serious consideration.

OUTSIDE LINEBACKERS

  • Leonard Floyd, Georgia
  • Ryan Anderson, Alabama
  • Jalen Reeves-Maybin, Tennessee

Floyd is the most likely player from this group to leave early, while Anderson and Reeves-Maybin need big seasons to even consider it.

CORNERBACK

  • Vernon Hargreaves III, Florida
  • Tre’Davious White, LSU
  • Cam Sutton, Tennessee

It’s hard to imagine Hargreaves III remaining in Gainesville after the ’15 season, while the other two players are borderline early entries.

SAFETY

  • Tony Conner, Ole Miss
  • Quincy Mauger, Georgia

CBS Sports ranks Conner as the second-best strong safety of the 2017 class. Considering the lack of quality safeties in the ’15 draft and the fact that Conner could have a huge season playing behind a strong Rebels front seven, it’s possible he’s the fourth player to enter the NFL draft early following the season.
