[Dynasty] 2017 Draft Prospects (2 Viewers)

 

Boise State junior RB Jeremy McNichols rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns on 28 carries in the school's 45-31 win over San Jose State.
McNichols has rushed for over 115 yards in all but two games this season, including performances of 208 and 217 yards. McNichols also has 16 touchdowns on the season. With three games left, McNichols should produce a career year.

UConn senior WR Noel Thomas caught four passes for 32 yards in Friday's 21-0 loss to Temple.
Thomas entered Friday's action on an absolute roll, having ripped off six consecutive games of 100-plus yards receiving. Temple was having none of that. The Owls ultimately limited the 6-foot-1, 202-pound senior to his lowest yardage total of the 2016 campaign. For the season as a whole, Thomas is working to an 87-1090-3receiving line over 10 games.

San Diego State senior RB Donnel Pumphrey rushed for 112 yards on 21 carries in Saturday's 55-0 win over Hawaii.
At least part of Pumphrey's librarian-approved evening was due to the fact that this was never really a contest at all. The Aztecs led 14-0 after one quarter and 27-0 at the half, eliminating the need for a true Pumhrey supernova. As is, this was the 5-foot-9, 180-pounder's second-lowest yardage output of the season and his lowest mark since he went for 98 yards against New Hampshire in the season-opener. For the season as a whole, the stalwart senior has rushed for 1,581 yards and 13 touchdowns. He will finish November with regular-season contests against Nevada, Wyoming and Colorado State to try to close out what is tracking toward a 2,000-yard campaign.

Wyoming junior RB Brian Hill rushed for 142 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries in Saturday's 52-28 drubbing of Utah State.
This is Wyoming's world. The rest of us our just trying to survive. Fresh off of slaying Boise State last weekend, the Cowboys were in no mood for an upset on Saturday. Hill helped make sure that none was coming, averaging 5.68 YPC and ripping off touchdown runs of 56 and 15 yards. The 6-foot-1, 220-pounder has surpassed 140 yards rushing in three of his last four games and is up to 1,298 yards and 13 touchdowns through nine contests completed.

That's four players that are worth drafting in rookie drafts next year....  Gallman and Scott will need to boost their draft stock and hopefully land in a decent/good spot

Williams is a rookie 1st lock, Watson probably won't sneak into the first in such a deep draft.

 
Westbrook and Ross III are making this a deeper WR class. It's getting even more deeper every week.

UNC redshirt junior QB Mitch Trubisky completed 24-of-33 passes for 297 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in Thursday's 28-27 loss to Duke.
Trubisky started the game out well enough, anyway, connecting with Thomas Jackson and Bug Howard for first-quarter touchdowns. He would throw one more in the second quarter. While the 6-foot-3, 220-pound redshirt junior was intercepted twice by the Blue Devils, he has been picked off in just one other game this season. For the campaign as a whole, Trubisky has passed for 3,004 yards with a 22/4 TD/INT ratio over the course of 10 contests completed. Two of his last three games have seen him throw for three touchdowns.

 
 
 

 
Guice is a freak. He makes funny things happen in my pants.

For real, he'll be the steal of whatever draft he goes in. Looking forward to seeing him at the next level.

(posting about him here mostly because of the Fournette hype, and because I think this guy is overlooked)

Isn't he essentially the consensus 1.01 pick in 2018?  I've never once got the impression that anyone was overlooking him.

Probably true. I don't play dynasty (noob status, I know), so I don't hear nearly as much about this guy as I think I should, I just feel like he gets lost in the Fournette hype.

2018: Barkley....maybe but they are close.

I'd draft Barkley if given the chance.

AS far as overlooking, I believe he is talking about Guice.
Right, that's what I was referring to.  I think Guice is being talked about as much as most top prospects that aren't eligible for another year.  If he's not the top 2018 draft eligible RB, he's at least in the conversation.  

 
I'm glad Williams plans to come out and I can't wait to see how Watson performs at the combine.

Plenty of people on this board that think Guice is the best RB on his team, not necessarily a knock against Fournette, but a credit to Guice.  He's essentially what Chubb was when Gurley was still at Georgia and now Chubb's train is moving at a much slower pace (mostly due to his injury though).  So maybe Guice's stock won't be as high as we think next year either.  Who knows.  Guice isn't draft eligible for 2017 right?

I'm so giddy about these up and coming RB's that I can't wait to see who's going to be the top backs to go along with DJ, Zeke and Bell for the next 5 years.  Like literally super giddy about it.  Could easily be 10 stud RB's in the league by the middle of 2018.

I'm on the record as well in thinking the Guice is the best RB for LSU. Correct, he's not eligible until 2018.

I'm thinking maybe as many as 9 teams drafting running backs in 2017. The first four rounds are going to be interesting.

Boise State junior RB Jeremy McNichols rushed for 153 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries in Saturday's 52-16 thumping of Hawaii.
McNichols notched a 36-yard scoring run with 8:52 remaining in the first quarter, then looped back around to score from five yards out in the second quarter. The 5-foot-9, 205-pound star averaged 9.5 YPC with a long run of 38 yards in the breezy win. McNichols has surpassed 140 yards rushing in each of his last five games. He has scored at least two touchdowns in three consecutive contests. Overall, the junior has rushed for 1,369 yards and 18 touchdowns through 10 games. With just two games remaining on the regular season schedule, a 2,000-yard rushing campaign looks just slightly out of reach.

 
 
 

 
Washington senior WR John Ross caught eight passes for 154 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 26-13 loss to USC.
In a horrible offensive slog for Washington that saw them score all of one touchdown, Myles Gaskin rushed for 51 yards, Jake Browning was picked off twice and John Ross somehow recorded his second-best yardage total of the 2016 season. Strange times we live in, strange times. The 5-foot-11, 179-pound senior has now surpassed 100 yards receiving in three of his last four games -- he did not hit that mark in any of Washington's first six contests. He's scored 15 touchdowns through 10 games.

Washington State senior WR Gabe Marks is now the career leader in receptions in Pac-12 history.
Marks has caught 295 passes for 3,268 yards and 36 touchdowns in his career. He is a bit behind in the conference's yardage record (718 yards to go) and the touchdown record (five behind). The NCAA record for receptions is held by Justin Hardy at 387. Washington State has two regular season games remaining.
