Markus Wheaton/WR/Oregon State: Wheaton is in the midst of a terrific season and has impressed scouts every week. He's on pace for career numbers and his six touchdown receptions this year tops his cumulative total from the prior three seasons. Wheaton has the build to be a No. 2 receiver at the next level and his reported 40 speed of 4.4-seconds enhances his value. The senior entered the season with last day draft grades, but has since moved into the middle rounds.
Matt Elam*/S/Florida: The junior safety continues to impress scouts and he stood out during the Gators' close victory over Missouri. Elam does a terrific job patrolling centerfield, aggressively defending the run while capitalizing on mistakes made by opposing quarterbacks. He's a multi-dimensional safety with the ability to make plays sideline-to-sideline against the run and pass.
Barrett Jones/C/Alabama: Jones has made the seamless transition from left tackle to center this season and now ranks as one of the best pivot blockers moving towards the draft. He's not very athletic, but he's smart, tough and fundamentally sound. Jones rarely makes mental mistakes and always finds a way to disrupt defenders protecting the passer or blocking for the run.
Terrance Williams/WR/Baylor: The Bears' passing attack was expected to take a step back after the departure of quarterback Robert Griffin III and receiver Kendall Wright. Williams has filled the void at the receiver spot this season and has climbed draft boards. He's posted at least 100 yards receiving in seven of eight games thus far and is averaging 20.1 yards on 60 receptions. Williams has surprised scouts with his deep speed and ability to stretch the field vertically. He entered the 2012 season graded as a seventh-round pick, but Williams now projects as a top 60 choice.
