2017 State Draft Report: Arkansas

CROP RATING
updated_state_rating_five_star Solid, not spectacular
Rating compares this year’s group to what a state typically produces, not to other states

About every two to three years the state of Arkansas produces a first-round pick, and it’s good for a second-round pick in most years. This year Blaine Knight will ensure that the state likely has a first-day pick, although overall its a pretty routine year for Arkansas.
