College football’s bowl season is over, leaving only a few days for the top draft-eligible players to make a tough call: stay in school for another season, or forgo their final year (or two) of eligibility and leave early for the NFL Draft.
This year, the deadline for underclassmen to declare for the 2020 NFL Draft is on Jan. 17. And, more than ever, those players have elected to leave early for the NFL.
A record-111 underclassmen declared for the 2019 NFL Draft, which continued the trend of at least 100 underclassmen declaring for the fourth-straight year (106 players declared in 2018, 103 in 2017 and 107 in 2016). Will that trend continue in 2020?
Sporting News is tracking the top college football underclassmen who declare for the 2020 NFL Draft:
