The Associated Press released their Pre-Season All American Team and it might as well be a draft watch list. With 25 total positions available on the First Team, only four players listed are not draft eligible.
Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence, Purdue all-purpose player Rondale Moore, Syracuse kicker Andre Szmyt and Syracuse Safety Andre Cisco were the only non-eligible players who made the top tier of the AP Teams. Unsurprisingly the eligible players named in the preseason honors are all players who have mentioned as potential first rounders.
Travis Etienne and Jonathan Taylor, two of college football’s most exciting running backs were named to the First Team, unsurprisingly.
