Two teams from a conference struggling to keep the pieces together and a pair of programs that have had a major impact on the NFL Draft in recent years. That won’t be the case next April as these two programs, which placed nine players into the first round since 2009, have only one potential top 32 player between them.

| 1-2 | Michael Egnew | TE | 82 | 5Sr | Exceptional pass catching tight end that looks more like a big possession receiver on the field. Natural in all aspects catching the ball and very athletic. Rarely used or asked to block. |
| 3-4 | Zaviar Gooden | OLB | 25 | 4Jr | Fierce, sideline to sideline linebacker that chases the action hard. Shows a lot of skill in his all-around game. Minimal size and struggles handling blocks. |
| 4th | Jerrell Jackson | WR | 29 | 4Sr | Smooth, fluid receiver with nice size and strength which he uses to his advantage. Consistently comes away with the difficult reception. Lacks the deep speed and ability to run to the long throw. |
| 4th | Jacquies Smith | DE | 3 | 4Sr | Relatively athletic college defensive end that occasionally stands up over tackle. Breaks down well, plays with terrific balance yet lacks blinding speed. |
| 6th | Austin Wuebbels | G | 66 | 5Sr | Tough, small area blocker that plays with a nasty attitude. Strong at the point, easily controls defenders once engaged in a block and plays smart football. |
| 6-7 | T.J. Moe | WR | 28 | 3Jr | Smart, competitive pass catcher that sacrifices his body to make the reception. Better than average speed. Not a big target. |
| 6-7 | Elvis Fisher | T | 72 | 5Sr | Underrated pass blocking left tackle that plays with good mechanics, football smarts and competitiveness. Lacks the great upside yet could be a solid reserve lineman at the next level. |
| 7-FA | Will Ebner | ILB | 32 | 4Sr | Hard working run defending, two-down linebacker with several off the field issues. |
| 7-FA | Dan Hoch | T | 77 | 4Sr | Strong yet immobile tackle only good in a small area. May get consideration at guard due to his inability to move. |
| FA | Terrell Resonno | DT | 93 | 5Sr | Quick lineman that displays some strength in the middle of the field. Best in a straight line and ineffective in pursuit. |
| FA | Wes Kemp | WR | 8 | 4Sr | Tough, reliable receiver with minimal upside. |
| FA | Kenji Jackson | S | 13 | 4Sr | Tough, run defending-straight line safety with marginal ball skills. |
| FA | Dom Hamilton | DT | 90 | 4Sr | Quick, first step lineman best in a straight line. |

| 3rd | Ryan Broyles | WR | 85 | 5Sr | Quick, creative slot receiver with reliable hands. Effective running after the reception. |
| 4th | Landry Jones | QB | 12 | 4Jr | Tough, intelligent signal caller that does a great job commanding and controlling the offense. Always on the same page as his receivers, displays great timing and competitive. Lacks great physical skills and a pocket passer that does not possess classic size or arm strength. |
| 4-5 | Ben Habern | C | 61 | 4Jr | Explosive position blocker that plays with terrific fundamentals and intellect. Explosive in all his movements and solid with the shotgun snap. Needs to get stronger but offers a lot of skill. |
| 5th | Travis Lewis | OLB | 28 | 5Sr | Potential week side linebacker that does a solid job reading and diagnosing the action. Gets depth on drops and covers a lot of area on the field. Lacks any dominant physical skill to his game. |
| 5-6 | Demontre Hurst | CB | 19 | 3Jr | Developing cornerback plays an aggressive game. Must be monitored for the future. |
| 6th | Jarvis Jones | T | 76 | 5Sr | Massive lineman that easily controls defenders once engaged at the point of attack. Has great length, long arms and the playing strength to match. Must really improved the details of his position. |
| 7th | Donald Stephenson | T | 59 | 5Sr | Rotational tackle primarily used on the left side that plays with good strength and solid fundamentals. Really best as a strong side blocker. |
| 7th | Jamell Fleming | CB | 32 | 5Sr | Feisty cornerback best facing the action. Struggles making plays with his back to the ball. Would be very effective in a zone system. |
| 7-FA | Frank Alexander | DE | 84 | 5Sr | Relatively athletic college pass rusher that plays with good balance and body control. Struggles getting off blocks and must improve his playing strength. |
| FA | James Hanna | TE | 82 | 4Sr | Consistent pass catching tight end that lacks speed to make plays down the field and strength to be an effective in line blocker. |
