NFL Draft rankings: Players 151-175

by Dan Kadar on Jun 3, 2011 7:41 PM EDT in 2012 NFL Draft

Today's group of rankings features several non-seniors. Some of them – like Nebraska DT Baker Steinkuhler, Ole Miss OT Bobby Massie and Stanford OLB Shayne Skov – could very well end up as top 50 players. But only as upcoming juniors, it's hard to justify placing them highly in preseason rankings.

Another player who could be more highly ranked is Arizona State cornerback Omar Bolden. He's likely out for the season, though, due to a knee injury.

Don't worry, though, the rankings will be updated a few times during the college football season. For now, check out players 151 through 175 after the jump. Find the entire top 175 here.

If Shayne Skov can keep building off Stanford’s bowl game, he could be a 1st-2nd round guy. Played a lot of OLB, rushed the QB often, and was really productive. 12 tackles, 4 TFL, 3 sacks, and was constantly around the football.

I have a lot of players on this list much higher

I have McDonald, Nico Johnson, Steinkuhler, Bolden, Trufant, and Massie in my top 100. I understand why you are keeping under-classmen lower but some of them you just have to trust that they will perform well again this year and finish high on boards. I think we just rank players differently but for the most part I have agreed with your list.

What are your thoughts on Skov? He looked pretty damn good in the bowl game. Seemed to have good play recognition as well as good instincts.

I have Skov in the same range as he is here

One game does not fly you up a board but if he keeps playing that well he should end up in the top 50 of next years draft.
