BREAKING: DeAndre Hopkins Thanks Clemson Fans, Declares For NFL Draft; Top 3 Pick?

One of the stars of the Chick-Fil-A Bowl and one of the most dynamic players in the country, Clemson WR DeAndre Hopkins is headed to this April’s NFL Draft.

He wrote via Twitter.

“It’s been one h*** of a ride tiger nation but I’m takin my talents to the next level #nfl” (edited)

Paired with Sammy Watkins (who was injured early in the Chick-Fil-A Bowl), Hopkins ripped up the collegiate level. He caught 119 or more receiving yards 5 times this season, and ended up with 18 TDs, good for 2nd in the FBS. The only game in which he failed to score was a home game against Furman where the starters hit the bench early, as they trampled them 41-7. Clemson QB Tajh Boyd will be back with the Tigers this year.

NFL scouts may see Hopkins as a punt and/or kickoff returner as well.
