  • The Hot Read Nds Top-50 Draft Board
    Thursday, August 28, 2014 – Week 1 NDS TOP-50 DRAFT BOARD THE HOT READ 1. MARCUS MARIOTA – QB – Oregon* By NFL Draft Scout Analyst Dane Brugler (@DPBrugler) 2. LEONARD WILLIAMS – DL – USC* . FOOTBALL IS BACK: School starting back up and summer winding down. Football is back! 3. CEDRIC OGBUEHI – OT – Texas A&M Whether you prefer NFL or college football (or both), the NFL Draft, which no question is a 4. RANDY GREGORY – DE – Nebraska* 365 day process, is the marriage of the two. A lot will change between now and next 5.

IFO EKPRE-OLOMU – CB – Oregon Mariota (6-4 | 215 | 4.52 | #8) and Florida State QB Jameis Winston (6-4 | 235 | 4.83 | 11. LANDON COLLINS – FS – Alabama* #5). However, it’s the potential of the pass rush group that has my attention. There are 12. VIC BEASLEY – OLB – Clemson currently 10 defensive ends or pass rush linebackers in NFLDraftScout.com’s pre-season 13.
