NFL Draft Projections

Posted on by

Here’s where I think USC players will go in tomorrow’s draft:

Matt Barkley, QB: 1st-2nd round

Robert Woods, WR: 1st-2nd round

T.J. McDonald, S: 4th-5th round

Khaled Holmes, C: 4th-5th round

Nickell Robey, CB: 5th-6th round

Wes Horton, DE: 6th-7th round

Curtis McNeal, TB: 6th-7th round

Jawanza Starling, S: 6th-7th round

Tony Burnett, LB: 7th round-FA

Drew McAllister, S: 7th round-FA

Kyle Negrete, P: 7th round-FA

  1. Seems pretty reasonable. And it doesn’t rival most of the Pete Carroll years.

    So here’s the question: Does USC no longer attract as many top prospects, or does it fail to realize prospects’ potential as well, or both?

    • Despite all the negative publicity and losses, they’re still going to have 5+ players taken. You can pitch that as a coach, with the sanctions, in terms that show 1/3 of the each recruiting class moves on to the NFL. The rest will probably be guaranteed invites to spring workouts and a chance to catch on as a FA. Plus, they get degrees from a top 30 university, and top 5 all time football program.

      • Let’s assume that all you say is correct. It remains true that the PC drafts were materially better. So I ask again: does USC no longer attract as many top prospects, or does it fail to realize prospects’ potential as well, or both?
