Looking ahead to 2017, Washington defensive backs Budda Baker and Sidney Jones, and Washington State quarterback Luke Falk are among the top 10 prospects for next year’s NFL draft, so says ESPN.
All three are entering their junior seasons in 2016, but would be eligible to declare early for the draft after next season if they so choose.
Baker, the free safety from Bellevue High, was an all-Pac-12 free safety last fall, and he’s tried to model his game after that of Seahawks’ star Earl Thomas.
