After the dust settled on the 2021 NFL Draft, two Syracuse Orange players (Andre Cisco and Ifeatu Melifonwu) were selected and another two (Trill Williams and Nolan Cooney) signed with the New Orleans Saints. While we initially thought all three Syracuse defensive backs would be picked, it was still good to see two Orange standouts hear their names called.
While it’s super early in next year’s cycle, it’s still worth pointing out some Syracuse players who could be picked next spring. We’ll start with players that are more likely to get picked, then progress to those that are on the fringes or are likely free agent signings.
