The official list of underclassmen accepted by the NFL will be released to NFL teams on January 20.
The underclassmen really gave a boost to the running back class. Dalvin Cook, D'Onta Foreman, Leonard Fournette, Wayne Gallman, Alvin Kamara, Christian McCaffrey, and Joe Mixon could all be selected in the first couple rounds of the draft. It shouldn't be a shock if Cook, Fournette, Kamara, McCaffrey, and Mixon are first round picks. It's been quite a while since running backs have had that sort of presence in the first round.
It's a good thing that National Champion Clemson isn't lacking in athletes. They are losing nearly all of their offensive playmakers.
DeShaun Watson, QB
Wayne Gallman, RB
Mike Williams, WR
Artavis Scott, WR
Don't worry. They'll just reload.
The same is true for Ohio State. They are losing a bunch of players.
Curtis Samuel, H-back
Noah Brown, WR
Marshon Lattimore, CB
Malik Hooker, S
Raekwon McMillan, LB
Gareon Conley, CB
They too will reload.
The 95 players fell short of the record of 98 early entrants set in 2014 but it's still far more than the numbers seen a decade ago.
2006: 52
2007: 40
2008: 53
2009: 46
2010: 53
2011: 56
2012: 65
2013: 73
2014: 98
2015: 74
2016: 96
2017: 95
Good luck to all of the football players putting an early end to their college days.
