6.  Myles Jack, LB – UCLA:  (6-1, 245) Projected RoundTop 10.  Jack is an outstanding athlete as he displayed at UCLA while not only playing but excelling at both linebacker and running back.  He’s a defensive play maker.  Can be effective not only against the run but especially in pass coverage where he should have an advantage against tight ends and running backs.  In the right system Jack could be a nightmare defender.  LW #

5.  Carson Wentz, QB – North Dakota State:  (6-5, 235) Projected RoundTop 10.  Wentz has the prototypical size you want in a quarterback.  However, he’s far from a statue in the pocket.  Wentz has the athleticism to be an effective runner and to elude the pass rush.  The only thing keeping Wentz from being the top quarterback in the 2016 NFL Draft is the level of football he played on at North Dakota State.  LW #

4.  Joey Bosa, DE – Ohio State:  (6-5, 269) Projected RoundTop 10.  Joey Bosa’s size and strength make him an outstanding pass rusher.  He’s not the quickest athlete off the edge.  But his instincts and tenacity are what gives him the advantage against offensive linemen when getting after the quarterback.  A non-stop motor keeps him in every play and for Bosa that ability is off the charts.  LW #
