After an exciting, long weekend of college football to kick off the season, the second week of the season may be a bit of a disappointment for some. This weekend lacks marquee games, as there isn’t a single game featuring two ranked teams. Rather than take the day off and wait for the NFL on Sunday, you can turn your attention to the NFL Draft prospects playing on Saturday.

There are several intriguing prospect matchups this weekend, including a big battle outside the hashes. While several schools may be using the second week of the season to fix issues that arose in the opener and beat up on group of five and FCS opponents, prospects can’t take the game off. At least not for the limited snaps many high-profile prospects will play.

Big boards across the country have been adjusted after opening weekend and another slight adjustment will take place after this week’s slate of games. So which prospects need to be paid close attention to on Saturday? Here are the six 2017 NFL Draft prospects to watch.
