South Floridians who could be drafted

As the April 26-28 NFL draft approaches, check out the players who graduated from Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade high schools who could go in the NFL Draft.

WR Antonio Callaway, Florida, Booker T. Washington

The blazing speedster, running a 4.41-second 40-yard dash, didn’t play in 2017 due to his part in a credit card fraud scheme and ended up declaring for the draft. A big-time talent, Callaway could go in the middle rounds despite other off-the-field issues while with the Gators, including a sexual assault trial (cleared of charges) and marijuana possession.

CB Carlton Davis, Auburn, Miami Norland

Davis started all three years at Auburn after a stellar prep career at Norland. The long 6-foot-1 corner broke up 20 passes and intercepted four in his collegiate career with the Tigers and looks like a secondround talent.

WR John Franklin III, FAU, South Plantation

A three-star quarterback originally signing with FSU, Franklin took a winding road through college. First, he transferred to East Mississippi Community College, where he played a role in the Netflix series “Last Chance U,” then Auburn and finally FAU. A receiver now, he only caught seven passes for 95 yards and a touchdown in one season with the Owls, but a team may take him late based on potential.

WR Steve Ishmael, Syracuse, North Miami Beach

Put together gaudy numbers last season, totaling 105 receptions for 1,347 yards and seven touchdowns – due in part to the Orange’s offense, but also his versatile 6-foot-2 frame and 4.54-second 40-yard dash time. Could go in late rounds.

QB Lamar Jackson, Louisville, Boynton Beach

One of the most electric players in college football, the Heisman Trophy winning quarterback has been the subject of much debate between NFL draft analysts. Jackson is currently projected as a first round pick, but how high he goes is anyone’s guess.

CB Chris Lammons, South Carolina, Plantation

Following a stellar four-year career with the Gamecocks, Lammons, who played quarterback with the Colonels before transitioning to defensive back in college, hopes to get drafted late. Playing safety in college but likely a cornerback prospect at hte pro level, he played 43 games, made 168 tackles, intercepted four passes and broke up 14 more while forcing three fumbles at South Carolina. Lammons lost both of his parents at the age of 11.

WR Brandon Powell, Florida, Deerfield Beach

A 5-foot-9, 184-pound slot receiver, Powell could be a late snag for a team looking for an athlete who can make plays underneath. The speedster with a 4.46 40 time possesses running back abilities after the catch –— he primarily was a back in high school. Powell had 42 receptions for 406 yards and three touchdowns his final season with the Gators.

OL Kc McDermott, Miami, Palm Beach Central

The 6-foot-6, 311-pound versatile lineman hopes to get taken late in the draft after being one of the Hurricanes’ most reliable linemen over his four-year collegiate career.

CB Tarvarus McFadden, FSU, American Heritage

The long 6-foot-2 McFadden showed incredible ball skills with eight interceptions as a sophomore. He doesn’t possess the elite closing speed scouts look for, however. A five-star recruit when he came out of Heritage, he is expected to go in the middle rounds of the draft after three seasons at FSU.

DT RJ McIntosh, Miami, Cardinal Gibbons

The 6-foot-4, 286-pound Gibbons product will set out to prove that the decision to leave college after three years was a good one. Exceptional athlete on the interior of the D-line but could be undersized to play tackle right away. A team that takes him in the third or fourth round may weigh slimming him down to move to end.

RB Sony Michel, Georgia, American Heritage

For those who follow high school football in South Florida, Michel has been a household name for nine years now, first earning praise for his play as an eighth-grader at Heritage. After rushing for 3,613 yards and 33 touchdowns — 16 as a senior — over four seasons with the Bulldogs working alongside Nick Chubb, Michel could go in the second round.

LB Skai Moore, South Carolina, University School

A long and lean linebacker, Moore was the Gamecocks’ leading tackler in all four seasons he played. In 2016, a herniated disc in his neck caused him to miss what would’ve originally been his senior year before coming back for a fifth season. He could go in the late rounds.

CB Deatrick Nichols, USF, Miami Central

At 5-foot-10 and 189 pounds, Nichols figures to be a slot corner at the next level that could go in the late rounds of the draft. He had 11 interceptions over his final three seasons at USF.

K Eddy Pineiro, Florida, Miami Sunset

Pineiro figures to get drafted after two seasons kicking for the Gators. His journey to the NFL draft took him through a first love of soccer, kicking for Sunset as a senior, going to ASA-Miami and joining UF as a junior college transfer.

WR Calvin Ridley, Alabama, Monarch

Ridley saw his yards per catch jump up to 15.3, more than 3.5 yards per reception better than in either of his first two years with the Crimson Tide. Expected to be a late first-rounder in most mocks.

WR Brandon Shed, Hobart, Benjamin

An under the radar high school prospect, the 6-foot-4 receiver blew up in college, recording 167 receptions for 2,958 and 32 touchdowns. Shed is being projected as 5th-7th round pick.

WR Tre’Quan Smith, UCF, Village Academy

6-foot-2 receiver hauled in 59 receptions for 1,171 yards and 13 touchdowns during his junior season for the undefeated Knights. Smith is projected as a 4th-7th round pick.

DE Chad Thomas, Miami, Booker T. Washington

A five-star prospect out of Booker T., Thomas only collected 99 tackles and nine sacks over four seasons at UM but his physical traits still should give scouts a lot to love. “Major Nine” could be a Day 2 draft selection but could also drop to early in Day 3.

LB Matthew Thomas, FSU, Booker T. Washington

A long, 6-foot-3, 232-pound outside linebacker, Thomas projects as a late-round selection after five years at FSU. A former five-star recruit, he has speed off the edge and in pursuit but has questionable size and technique.

CB Derrick Tindal, Wisconsin, Boyd Anderson

The former Cobra could get taken late in the draft. With the Badgers, he played in 51 games over four years, accumulating 104 tackles, 27 pass breakups and five interceptions, including one back in South Florida to cap his college career against Miami in the Orange Bowl.

RB Mark Walton, Miami, Booker T. Washington

After a 1,117-yard, 14-touchdown sophomore season on the ground, Walton went pro after a junior year that was cut short due to an ankle injury. His explosiveness when healthy makes him a combo back a team could take in the middle rounds.

QB Mike White, Western Kentucky, University School

The quarterback that led University School to its lone state title in 2012 posted big numbers in Western Kentucky’s offense after transferring from USF. With a standout arm, he could go in the mid-to-late rounds.

LB Jaboree Williams, Wake Forest, Fort Lauderdale

The versatile linebacker and former Flying L finished his senior year at Wake with 85 tackles, 13 for loss, two and a half sacks, two interceptions and another pair of fumble recoveries. Hoping to go late in the draft, he ran a 4.67 at his pro day and benched 22 reps of 225 pounds.
