Boston College prospects
Boston College has a potential top-10 pick in outside linebacker/defensive end Harold Landry. While he missed some time with injury this year, scouts agree he's a wrecking ball and will be picked early this coming draft.
Behind Landry, freshman A.J. Dillon is garnering early eyes after a huge season, and junior guard Chris Lindstrom is a potential NFL player.

Iowa prospects
While Boston College has the highest-rated prospect, Iowa has prospects in spades.
Led by defensive players Josey Jewell and Josh Jackson, the Hawkeyes have several prospects expected to be drafted. Jewell is a projected second- or third-rounder and Jackson has been projected as high as the first round.
And they have several players who will be looked at in coming years, too, with freshman DE A.J. Epensa getting looks already.
