The 2018 NFL Draft is coming at us quickly now that we have witnessed yet another thrilling National Title Game. 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: Jessie Bates III (2017) vs. Jordan Whitehead (2017)
This video from DEVO Highlights features Wake Forest S Jessie Bates III. Bates has good height at 6-foot-2 and a frame that can carry more than his current 195 pounds. As a sophomore, he totaled 79 tackles and an interception, a mark that was down on his 100 tackles that he put up as a freshman. Bates would probably have been better served with at least one more year as a college player, but if he is strong in the pre-draft workouts then he could rise to being a second-day pick.
