PrintQB | RB | FB | WR | TE | OT | OG | OC | DT | DE | OLB | ILB | CB | FS | SS | All Rankings
| 1. William Moore | 6'1, 226 pounds | Missouri | ||
|
Moore has seen his stock plummet after playing injured during his senior season. However, he still has great potential due to his ability to play the run and pass equally well. |
|
| 2. Louis Delmas | 6'0, 196 pounds | Western Michigan |
||
|
Somewhat similar in play to Reggie Nelson of the Jacksonville Jaguars, Delmas excels in pass coverage. He can handle receivers in man coverage and is solid in zone. |
|
| 3. Rashad Johnson | 6’0, 190 pounds | Alabama | ||
|
A walk-on turned team captain, Johnson lacks great athleticism but is a intelligent football player. Johnson is stout against the run and relentless in pass coverage. |
|
| 4. Derek Pegues | 5'10, 195 pounds | Mississippi State |
||
|
Pegues is like a cornerback playing safety. He has excellent coverage skills and possesses great athleticism. He does struggle against the run, and will have to be drafted by the right team. |
