The Clemson Tigers will see a good number of talent drafted in the 2017 NFL Draft. Here’s a look at their top prospects.

The Clemson Tigers won their first National Championship in 35 years and it comes with its reward. The Tigers were able to get redemption going away in their final games as college athletes, winning a National Title over the Alabama Crimson Tide.

Against the odds, Clemson prevailed, giving Dabo Swinney his first National Title as a head coach. Now, a good number of Tigers players will have an opportunity to hear their name called on April 27 from Philadelphia.

After going 28-2 in the last two seasons, some Tigers players are ready to take the next step by entering their name early into the NFL Draft. Others, like linebacker Ben Boulware, are out of eligibility and have to make the jump anyways.

The Tigers have a good variety of talent coming for the NFL Draft as well. They have playmakers on both sides of the ball looking to win more games at the next level. Here’s a look at the top prospects from Clemson in the NFL Draft.
