The NFL draft begins on April 25, but it’s never too early to see how things could play out in the first round. Last year in my final mock draft, I correctly projected 24 of the 31 players that would be selected in the first round. My picks are based on observations, team needs, scouting services and NFL sources:
USC
LSU
Notre Dame
Alabama
Oregon
Florida State
UCLA
Clemson
Georgia
Iowa
Penn State
Duke
Washington
Arizona
North Carolina
Ohio State
Illinois
BYU
Minnesota
Toledo
