I saw in another thread, the discussion about next years draft for the Tigers. I found this with 3 different mocks. One has 4 Tigers taken in the 1st round with Tyson, Dorsey, Doucet, and Big Herm. However, he has Tyson going at least 5 spots ahead of Dorsey. So take it with a grain of salt for now. http://thefootballexpert.com/mockdraftdatabase.html
Y'all are getting lots of props: 1. Raiders: Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas - McFadden ran for 182 yards against LSU, which is basically an NFL team. Character questions, but these are the Raiders.
I think Tyson could very well go ahead of Dorsey. Tyson has the athleticism NFL teams crave, plus Dorsey is a bit undersized for an NFL DT. Herman Johnson & Tyson will only be Jr's so they may not come out. As of right now, I don't see Johnson as a first round pick, but who knows how much improvement we'll see this year. It'd be tough for Tyson to come back as a likely top 10 pick, but I could see Johnson sticking around. As for Early, I see him as more of a late first round guy right now because he'll be double teamed a lot this season, which will affect his numbers. However, considering his skill in the open field, he may be able to put up some gaudy numbers in Crowton's offense. We'll have to see what happens.
I agree with your Doucet prediction, he will put up decent numbers, team leader, and have a great year. However, I think his draft stock will rise when he gets to the combine and Pro Day.
Tyson Jackson is already better than Mario Williams was when he was taken #1 over all ahead of you know who. He also has the same measurables. If he has the same season he did last year and decides to come out early, there is a strong possibility of us having the #1 overall pick two years in a row.
