Mike Adams
He stands 6'8" weighing in at 320 pounds. Possibly the best senior OT of this draft class. He projects as a second round pick. I'm curious to see if the scandal hurts him at all, maybe not. Kalil and Reiff are both Juniors and better talents. I don't think he will slip past the 2nd round. If he does I do think there was character issues concerned with some teams. Good third round pick in my opinion. I wouldn't have a problem with late second though either. Weird, we are a mid-late round pick.
Cliff Harris
Several driving charges and has had drug possession. Character is a big deal in the NFL now a days. Take away the police run ins and you have a very intriguing guy. He's a good punter returner, but there are a lot of good punter returners out there. He is extremely fast and very athletic. Harris is extremely raw, so with him you will hear the double edged sword of potential. I would project him as a 2nd round pick without the charges. He will be all across mock drafts. I see him as a day 3 guy right now. 5th round maybe, 6th go ahead and pull the trigger.
Quinton Coples
This guy is without a doubt a top ten talent. A lot of people are saying he had a drop in production this year. Not in my mind, 10 sacks to 7.5, 15.5 to 15 tackles for a loss. It's DE your not handed sacks year after year. He has bigger problems with his draft status. He has character issues, which is once again a big deal in the NFL. He's getting some bad stuff stamped to his name. Character issues and lack of motivation our huge issues for teams. Bowers of Clemson shocked me last year. A lot of people think this guy has fallen farther than anyone. Being a top ten guy (top 5 no) he'll probably fall to top 15 if he does fall out of the top ten. I just keep having bowers in the back of my head, though his was an injury issue. I do think the Lions should pass even if the off chance he is still there in the 1st round. Don't get me wrong, he's a solid 4-3 DE and if this wasn't the Lions I would have different feelings. They shouldn't move up to get the guy, which has become a 2nd round thing to do with Schwartz. Maybe this year it won't be for a RB. He's there Lions on the clock round two go ahead and pull the trigger. No way this happens though, but anything is possible.
Janoris Jenkins
I put him right behind Morris Claiborne of top CBs in this draft. CB is still going to be a need for us this off season. A top ten talent, two marijuana counts, and transferred to North Alabama. Some mock drafts might have him going in the top ten. I think at best he'll be a mid 1st round pick. When the possibility of him entering the supplement draft I said without a doubt use a third round pick, I'm shaky about a second round pick. Knowing where we are at I am no longer shaky about the second round pick. The Lions have to consider him in the first round. A player in trouble will never get on the field and then will have to restart somewhere else, I don't think they should use their third round pick on him. This guy is going to be all over the draft boards across the nation.
