When you start looking at the Florida Gators roster, you can quickly come to the conclusion that it’s going to be a defensive-orientated draft class. The top of their class is led by a pair of defensive backs, and they’ll look to climb up draft boards starting on Saturday when they open against the University of Miami at home in Gainseville.

CJ Henderson
Florida CB CJ Henderson is a developing corner who plays feisty football and shows outstanding athleticism as well as speed in his game. He effectively tracks the ball in the air and possesses the ball skills necessary to beat out opponents. I love his upside and believe he has first-round potential.
Brad Stewart
Gators safety Brad Stewart is underrated and is someone who plays smart, disciplined football. Stewart quickly recognizes assignments, shows a physical nature to his game and displays ability against the run and pass. He has a thin frame, but I love his upside. I have a 2nd-3rd round grade on him.
Other Florida Prospects
Beyond Henderson and Stewart, there are other Gators who will likely hear their name called during the NFL Draft in Las Vegas come April 2020. This includes DE Jabari Zuniga, who I have a third round grade on. I also have a third round grade on DE Jon Greenard.
Other middle round prospects include CB C.J. Williams and WR Van Jefferson. Both of them graded out in the fifth round. On the last day of the draft, we may hear RB Lamical Perine’s name called as I have a 6th-7th round on him.
Florida has numerous other prospects, but as of now, I have an undrafted free agent grade for them. This includes the likes of QB Feleipe Franks, DT Kyree Campbell, SAF Shawn Davis, and others.
