This week, Breitbart Sports will be taking an in-depth look at the upcoming NFL Draft. In our inaugural season we will work to become the top site for coverage of all four major drafts, starting with the NFL Draft to be held April 25 through 27 and through the MLB, NBA and NHL drafts in June. See the table below for the schedule for each draft. On Tuesday we will release the bottom half of the first ever Breitbart Big Board, ranking prospects 51-100. The rankings of prospects 1-50 will be released Wednesday.

The second edition of our Mock Draft will be revealed on Thursday and Friday, with the first round being posted on Thursday and the second round up on Friday. Below is a simple list of 25 prospects that few people are talking about that could end up making an impact at the next level. Some are from larger schools–however, for whatever reason, they have been largely overlooked in discussions for Rounds 1-3. Others are more traditional, “sleeper” prospects who are from small schools but could make an impact. These players are not listed in any particular order.
