26. Charles Harris – OLB – Missouri: The next great edge rusher to come from Missouri.

25. Isaiah Ford – WR – Virginia Tech: Reminds me of former Biletnikoff winner and Saints first round pick Brandin Cooks. But Ford could be even faster.

24. Christian McCaffrey – RB – Stanford: Heisman runner-up will have his critics because he’s a white running back. But forget that ridiculousness, he’s the best dual-threat running back prospect since Reggie Bush in 2005.

23. Jonathan Allen – DE – Alabama: Ready to break out in 2016 after playing situationally first two years. Still highly productive edge rusher with some scheme versatility.

22. Desmond King – CB – Iowa: 2015 Thorpe Award winner

21. Lewis Neal – DE/OLB – LSU: Late bloomer who broke out with  7.5 sacks as a junior. Short at 6-2, so not a 4-3 end.

20. Chad Kelly – QB – Ole Miss: Threw for 4,000 yards and ran for 500 and had 41 total touchdowns. Will 6-1 height be an impediment to first round selection?

Next: No. 19-11
