In all, 95 people representing all 32 NFL teams converged on little ole Clemson on Thursday, as well as ESPN and the NFL Network. Why? Clemson is and has become one of the hotbeds for NFL talent.
When the 2016 NFL Draft opens on April 28, Clemson is expected to have three of its former players—Mackensie Alexander, Kevin Dodd and Shaq Lawson—selected in the first round, while possibly three or even more could fall in rounds 2-7 over the three-day period.
“These guys that are coming out from this class, have been incredibly successful,” Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said.
