This document lists and describes 7 top college football players who could potentially be selected as the first overall pick in the 2014 NFL draft. The players discussed are: 1) Jadevon Clowney of South Carolina, who has generated hype since high school for his size and athleticism at defensive end. 2-3) Teddy Bridgewater of Louisville and AJ McCarron of Alabama, both talented quarterbacks who have had success in the past and could be top draft picks with strong upcoming seasons. 4-7) Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M, Marqise Lee of USC, Braxton Miller of Ohio State, and Aaron Murray of Georgia - all quarterbacks or receivers who

2. 7) Aaron Murray
There are a plethora of phenomenal
quarterbacks in this years draft. Just like EJ
Emmanuel from Florida State, Murray isn’t as
sought after as the other QB’s in the class. It
surprised everyone when EJ Emmanuel was
drafted the Bills as the first QB drafted in the
2013 draft a few weeks ago.Though not highly
expected,Aaron Murray has the potential to go
1st pick, 1st round in the 2014 Draft. It all
depends on how well he produces in this
upcoming 2013 season with the Georgia
Bulldogs.

3. 6) Braxton Miller
Braxton Miller has been just another
success story of Ohio State coach Urban
Meyer. Miller was recruited as an Athlete
and ended up becoming Quarterback for
the Buckeyes as soon as he got there. Miller
is a raw quarterback that still must improve
in accuracy. He is still an extremely
dangerous dual threat QB with amazing
mobility and running skill while he has
improved immensely on his accuracy as
shown in the spring game recently. If the
Buckeyes have another 12-0 season this
year he will definitely be a high contender
for 1st pick next year in the draft.

4. 5) Marqise Lee
Lee had an amazing sophomore season that
definitely turned heads. Lee has been
compared to and has been labeled as the next
Randy Moss.With praise that high Lee could be
the first pick in the draft depending on
whether or not he can connect with the new
starting Quarterback which is still in progress.
Lee also had an injury during spring practice
but, if he can bounce back and produce they he
did last season if not better, you better keep
and I on him.

5. 4) Johnny Manziel
As the first freshmen in football history to
win the Heisman Trophy, there is absolutely no
doubt that Johnny Football will be one of the
top players considered to be the first name
called in the 2014 draft. Johnny Football
secretly burst into the 2012 season as a
redshirt freshmen and produced better stats
than initially every QB in the nation. Manziel
practically on Celeb status after his historic
first season in College Football. Manziel is
eligible for the draft after this season.The only
reason I put him at #4 on this list is because
there’s a good chance he won’t declare for the
draft after this season.

6. 3) AJ McCarron
The man with 2 national championships.AJ
McCarron is going into his junior year with
2 national championships with Alabama.
McCarron has a huge chance winning
another one this year as well. If AJ can
continue to post outstanding stats this
season under head coach Nick Saban, there
is no doubt his name will be called first in
the draft.

7. 2) Teddy Bridgewater
Teddy Bridgewater hasn’t been getting the
respect he deserves. No one knew about
Teddy Bridgewater despite his fantastic
stats he post in rushing and passing. He has
a unbeatable arm along with rare accuracy.
What really turned people on to
Bridgewater was when he upset the
Florida Gators who were #1 in pass
defense in the Orange Bowl. Bridgewater
also got MVP for the Big Ten as well as that
bowl game. Although he doesn’t get as
much hype as Manziel or McCarron,
Bridgewater feels confident that he will be
the first pick in the NFL if not that than
the first QB taken in the 2014 NFL draft.

8. 1) Jadevon Clowney
Jadevon Clowney has been stealing everyones
hype since his senior year in high school. Recruits
have said that he could’ve gone straight out of
high school into the NFL and that is arguably the
best compliment a football player can get.
Especially as a high school student. Clowney
really turned heads when he knocked the helmet
off of a Michigan running back by hitting him so
hard. He has lived up to all of his hype and
continues to get better each year. He is for now
the player all coaches will be wanting and has
almost a guarantee to take the first spot on the
NFL draft board. Definitely try to watch this 6’6
272-pound monster this upcoming season as well
as on whatever team gets lucky enough to pick
this guy up in the NFL.
