Top underclassmen yet to declare for 2020 NFL Draft

As the deadline to declare for the 2020 NFL Draft approaches, here are a few of the top underclassmen who have not yet made their decisions known.

More and more, as the years go by, the number of underclassmen leaving college early for the NFL seems to rise. There were 135 underclassmen who declared for the 2019 NFL Draft, and 19 of those were selected in the first round. Those numbers figure to be about the same, if not increased, in the 2020 NFL Draft.

This year’s NFL Draft will be just as top loaded with underclassmen as 2019 was. Outside of the potential first overall pick in Joe Burrow, who just completed his fifth year of college, the next top ten picks could all very well be underclassmen.

Guys like Ohio State’s defensive end Chase Young and defensive back Jeffrey Okudah, as well as Alabama’s quarterback Tua Tagovailo and wide receiver Jerry Jeudy have already declared for the 2020 draft, and they’re joined by plenty of other big name talents from other schools all across the nation in leaving school early for the NFL.

However, there are big time talents on just about every mock draft and big board you look at that have yet to announce their decision. With the deadline for college underclassmen to submit their names for the NFL draft on January 20, we enter the last week for them to finalize their decisions.

Let’s take a look at some of the top underclassmen that have yet to declare for the 2020 NFL Draft.
