Head coach Dabo Swinney certainly put Clemson University back in the national spotlight, but they’ve always had a very good supply of players headed to the NFL. But under Swinney, the caliber of players that have gone pro is pretty amazing. Starting at wide receiver, you have Sammy Watkins, Martavis Bryant, DeAndre Hopkins, Jaron Brown, Adam Humphries, Charone Peake, and Mike Williams. Outside linebacker Vic Beasley Jr., who led the NFL in sacks in 2016, went to Clemson. So did cornerbacks Byron Maxwell, Mackensie Alexander, and Cordrea Tankersley. And last, but certainly not least, let’s not forget quarterback Deshaun Watson, who was the most exciting rookie in 2017 before tearing his ACL.
