As with anything, this time of year the draft process is a fluid and organic thing so don’t believe everything you read until it’s closer to the draft.

#1. Carlos Hyde Ranked Number 19 Overall

Kiper is in love with ‘Los right now. Here is what he says about him:

Hyde has a great combination of elite size for the position plus quick feet and an ability to accelerate quickly through the hole.

He’s devastating on the second level because he has a downhill style that makes him a punishing runner who can run through and bounce off contact.

2. Tajh Boyd Pretty Much Sucks, According to Kiper

I still have Boyd in that mid-second to early third range where most teams look for developmental quarterbacks with starter potential. Kiper totally disagrees and has Boyd ranked #10 of JUST the Senior QBs. Ouch.

Derek Carr of Fresno State, AJ McCarron of Alabama, Zach Mettenberger of LSU, Jimmy Garoppolo of Eastern Illinois, Aaron Murray of Georgia, Stephen Morris of Miami (FL), David Fales of San Jose State, Logan Thomas of Virginia Tech and Tom Savage of Pittsburgh all rank over Boyd.

Hyde and Roby will both be suspended after nightclub incidents though Roby’s discipline has not officially been determined at this time.

Hyde, who rushed for 970 yards last season is a integral part of the Buckeyes attack. He will be suspended for hitting a woman in a nightclub except there is one small problem- he didn’t do it.

A video surveillance tape has emerged which has likely exonerated Carlos. Here are the details via Yahoo!

The source said video shows Hyde speaking in the direction of the alleged victim just prior to her punching him in the head. The video then shows Hyde leaving the area and reaching back in the woman’s direction in a non-confrontational manner, the source said. From the video, it doesn’t appear Hyde ever made contact with the woman – either before or after she struck him, the source said.
