  Draft Scout by Conference









  "Burrow and Simmons might be the two best that I've ever seen," said the NFL scout, who has studied players for nearly five decades. The Atlantic Coast Conference Defensive Player of the Year lined up at defensive end, linebacker and safety as well as other spots for the Tigers. "It's like getting three first-round draft picks in one," Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said in an Associated Press article after the school's pro day on March 12, the day the sports world came to a halt. But the areas that have the most foundational players aren't at quarterback or linebacker but at wide receiver and the offensive line, especially at the tackle position. "I think this may be the best group of offensive lineman that I've seen," the scout said. "I got three (tackles) in the top 10." The receivers, meanwhile, boast so much talent that Jeremiah said he rated 27 receivers with top-three-round grades. Regardless, there will be talent at every position to satisfy the teams and their fans.

"The draft is what you put into it," the scout said. "People say there are good years and bad years - there are always players out there." But how will the draft turn out with no pro days and team visits? "(You) have to go back to the old drafts, which were better drafts, where they used to be held two weeks after the Senior Bowl and the coaches couldn't get involved. And you didn't have anybody getting excited about running around in their undershorts," the scout said. "People forget what happened in September and October, and they just remember what happened in March. And the problem in March is, they're in shorts." - Honolulu Advertiser
