Current Players (Sr.) with Legit shot at NFL

[ponywhupp9202]

My son asked me this question during the Tulsa game. My un-researched and not professional opinion answer was this:
Margus - yes, draftable
DJ - probably
McJunkin - maybe
Reed - maybe
JG - probably
Zach - probably, but only to a team that uses a fullback or possibly as a linebacker. Not sure if he would be considered for a feature running back on an NFL team.

Am a missing anyone else? Are the above assessments accurate?

[JasonB]

Margus and Zach will get drafted.

Reed and JG have a shot at getting drafted, and will get a free agent look at minimum. I would be willing to bet that Reed stays on a roster after getting looked at.

[redpony]

IMO Zack might also get looked at by a team that wants use a 'change of pace' back as an addition to a speed back that they might already have.

[malonish]

If they need a back that will crash through some folks then Zach is their guy.

[Nacho]

i wouldn't be surprised to see them all drafted with margus going in the first round.

[ponyboy]

Man, how I'd love a guy like Taylor Reed on my team. Smallish for NFL? Yes. But that dude can play. Wouldn't be surprised to see him end up with the Cowboys.

[Cash McMogulson]

The thing that JG, Reed and ZL have going for them is that they all excel at special teams, which is rare for the star of a college squad, and may help all of them find roster spots. If there's one thing to appreciate about June, he puts the NFL-caliber guys in good positions to succeed at the next level, especially when they aren't top pick type guys and need a way to make a squad.

Zach could also thrive on a team that does a running back-by-committee approach, such as Pittsburgh or New Orleans.

[Terry Webster]

The Bengals have a main back in Ben-jarvis Green-ellis who is very similar to Line...not super fast, but strong, willing to block for the quarterback, great in short yardage situations and rarely fumbles. I think he could easily fit in. Plus, his special team work gives him a huge upside over lots of other players.

Yeah, blocking and special teams play are big plusses for a guy like Zach who doesn't match the prototype.

[Pony ^]

If Toby Gerhart is in the NFL I think Zach can be as well

[Rebel10]

However many are drafted it should be more than UT or schools like that according to JJ.

That's a great comparison. Hope Zach has the same success in the NFL that Green-Ellis has had.

My guesses:
Drafted: Margus Hunt, Zach Line, Taylor Reed, Ja'Gared Davis
Free agent tryouts: Darius Johnson, Blake McJunkin, Bryan Collins, Kevin Grenier

[Billy Joe]

Darius Johnson will get drafted.

[PerunaDontCare]

I'd bet Margus, Line, and JG get drafted.

I wouldn't be surprised if TReed and/or McJunkin were picked up in the draft or as UFAs.
