2011 NFL Draft: Second Week Prospect Positional Rankings

Danny FlynnSep 12, 2010

Week two of the college football season is finally in the books, and we sure did have some terrific individual performances this weekend.

The two top teams in the nation - Alabama and Ohio State - both squared off against challenging foes yesterday, and both showed exactly why they deserve to be ranked above every other team.

Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor, my No. 1 rated prospect in the country, led the Ohio State Buckeyes to a 36-24 victory over a game Miami Hurricanes squad.

Alabama junior safety Mark Barron, my No. 1 rated safety, helped carry the Crimson Tide defense to a dominating performance in a 24-3 win over Penn State.

There were plenty of other eye opening performances as top rated prospects showed their stuff, while under the radar guys made a name for themselves.

Let's take a look at how the seniors and eligible underclassmen stack up for the NFL Draft at this point in the season.
