Top NFL Draft Prospects for 2010

By , About.com Guide   October 22, 2009

Follow me on:

I know, I know... it's way too early to start talking about the 2010 NFL Draft, and any speculation at this point is subject to huge revision six months from now. Regardless, I've put together a very premature collection of the top 32 draft prospects as I see them right now.

At this point, I have Oklahoma defensive tackle Gerald McCoy listed as the top prospect overall, assuming he opts to turn pro following the season. Along with McCoy there are a number of underclassmen, as always, in our initial release of the rankings. In fact, they make up half of the top ten.

More often than not a quarterback like McCoys' Sooner teammate Sam Bradford hears his name called first on draft day. At this point, however, any one of a handful of players could be the guy. Check the list...

The individual position rankings are coming soon!

(1) NFL draft :

Just a few months ago South Florida’s Jason Pierre-Paul was a complete unknown. Come April he could be a 1st Round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.
