Who's Who Playing Tonight


Florida St.

James Wilder, RB: Bigger running back at 6'2 230 with good speed to match the size. His prospects have dropped mainly because this team has gone to a much more heavy passing attack with its weapons on the outside on at QB. But size and speed aren't teachable and someone (if he declares) will take a shot on him.

Chad Abram, FB: More than likely not a draftable player but could make his way onto a team via udfa and play special teams.

Kelvin Benjamin, WR: It has not been made known yet if Benjamin will bolt for the NFL after his Redshirt Sophomore season but I am sure we will find out after tonight's game or early in this week. Benjamin is a monster at WR at 6'5 235 pounds. He plays a little smaller than his size and needs to learn to be more physical but that will come as he gets older.

Rashad Greene, WR: Greene is the faster more explosive player of the two wide receivers in tonights game. With the amount of talent coming out at wide receiver this year Greene is going to see his name began to drop on some boards.

Nick O'Leary, TE: Another talented underclassmen for Florida St. and another player we have to wait on the decision on if he'll stay or go. O'Leary possesses adequate size for a tight end at 6'3 and excellent receiving skills. He has been a part of this offense since his freshmen year.

Cameron Erving, OT: A Junior who also needs to make a decision if he will stay or go. Right now I view Erving as a 2nd day pick more than likely ending up in the early second round. He has the size to compete right away and good footwork.

Tre' Jackson & Josue Matias, OG: Also players that still need to declare since they are only JRs. Both are extremely talented and will be drafted right near each there in the 2nd day if they decide to come out.

Bryan Stork, C: He has the size you won't out of your center position but there are questions about his durability.

Timmy Jernigan, DT: Jernigan is a Junior who possesses excellent quickness for a man his size on the inside. He plays very well against the run but needs to develop as a pass rushing threat to truly be a well rounded defensive tackle.

Telvin Smith & Christian Jones, OLB: Jones is the bigger of the two and probably will get the most recognition on draft day but both will see their names called around the same time. Both have above average speed and can fly around the field.

Lamarcus Joyner & Terrence Brooks, S: Joyner is the more talented of the 2 and could see himself sneak into the late first round with a good interview and combine. Joyner has the ability to drop into the slot corner or stay at free safety. He is a very versatile player.

Auburn Tigers

 Tre Mason, RB: Exploded onto the scene late in the season as Auburn made its impractical run to the national championship game. Size is a concern with Mason because he is only 200 pounds could he handle the NFL pounding but with his speed and quickness he would make an excellent scat back.

Jay Prosch, FB: A product of this excellent run game. Fullbacks aren't a heavy draftable group unless they provide flexibility but he could still have a chance to be a late round guy.

Greg Robinson, OT: Quickly turned himself into one of the top prospects in this draft class at the offensive tackle position. He has helped turn around Auburn's run game and his a physical beast.

Reese Dismukes, C: He is a very good center but I don't seem him declaring and will return next season.

Steven Clark, P: He is a good punter but he isn't the best and he doesn't stand out will have a tough time making it next year but he is still in the discussion.

Dee Ford, DE: He fits more of the OLB/DE in a 3-4 scheme because he doesn't have the size necessary to be a 4-3 defensive end. He will be a mid round pick.
