Penn State NFL prospects face significant draft drops
Abdul Carter, a top prospect from Penn State, might drop in the NFL draft according to a new mock draft. Carter, who was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year, recorded 12 sacks and had a big role in his team's success. While many expect him to be a top-three pick, the mock draft suggests he could land at No. 7, with the New York Jets interested. The Jets would be pleased if this happens. Carter is seen as a strong addition to their defensive line, which has been very talented but could use more depth. New head coach Aaron Glenn would love to have Carter on his team. Tyler Warren, another Penn State player, is also projected to fall lower than expected. He had a standout season, catching 104 passes and earning the Big Ten Tight End of the Year award. Most mock drafts place him within the top 10 to 15 picks, but the latest prediction has him going at No. 18 to the Seattle Seahawks. Warren could be a valuable asset for the Seahawks. With a new offensive scheme, they need a strong tight end, and Warren is considered one of the best players in the draft. His athleticism and energy on the field make him an exciting prospect, despite some questions about his hand size.
