This group features some of my favorite players in this entire draft. Western Michigan’s Corey Davis and Vanderbilt’s Zach Cunningham are two players that I rate very highly. Both have a chance to be special NFL players and make an immediate contribution.

The secondary is well represented on this part of my Big Board too. Quincy Wilson is someone I’ve been moving up my board every time I get to see more film. He’s a long and athletic cornerback who just gets the job done.

Wilson has as much upside as any cornerback in the 2017 NFL Draft class.

D’Onta Foreman is a running back who I love to watch. He runs with a rare combination of power and quickness. He’s someone who can grind out the tough yards and also break off long runs. Foreman will be a highly productive NFL player.
