Скачать или смотреть NFL Draft prospects to know from college football's SURPRISE teams

The Indiana Hoosiers are the #3 team in the country. Yes, in football. And they aren't the only big surprise this season. The Texas A&M Aggies, Missouri Tigers and Cincinnati Bearcats all have paths to the College Football Playoff, as well. We've discussed a handful of players from those teams through an NFL Draft lens, but it's not just Fernando Mendoza and Marcel Reed doing work for their respective teams. On this episode of The Athletic Football Show's Building the Beast, Dane Brugler and Dave Helman go into the draft prospects you need to know from college football's surprise teams...including D'Angelo Ponds, Zion Young, and Brendan Sorsby. The guys also discuss the effects of James Franklin's firing on Penn State's NFL Draft prospects and take a look ahead to Week 8.
