If this were the NBA Draft, this would be considered the lottery picks.
This is also another point in the draft where teams find their steals. Some guys are top-five caliber players but fall because of a poor interview, Wonderlic test, or off-the-field issue.
Former Ole Miss Offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil is a prime example of that. Tunsil had the talent to be a top-five pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, but because of a Twitter video of him with a bong mask, he fell to the Dolphins at pick no. 13.
Tunsil’s lived up to the hype, earning a spot on the All-rookie team and three pro-bowl selections.
