The 2018 NFL Draft is coming at us quickly now that we have witnessed yet another thrilling national championship. The yearly extravaganza will take place in Arlington, Texas, from Thursday, April 26 to Saturday, April 28 this year.
Over the span of three days, a whole host of former college football stars will find new homes where they will hopefully impress during the offseason and make a living playing on Sundays.
COMPARE: Dontez Byrd (2017) vs. Calvin Ridley (2017)
This video features Tennessee Tech WR Dontez Byrd. Byrd was invited to the NFLPA Bowl after a season for Tennessee Tech where he had over 1,000 yards receiving on 78 catches with six touchdowns. Byrd started his career as a walk-on at Louisville, where he earned a scholarship for his special teams play before transferring to Tennessee Tech. His kick and punt return ability – and his ability to cover those kicks – will see him get an NFL look.
