45. . DL. Houston. Ed Oliver. 8. player

Ed Oliver came to the Houston football program with one goal in mind: Become a top 10 NFL draft pick.

He’s solidified his status, and has decided to forego the remainder of his college career with a little less than half of his junior season remaining.

Even with just seven games played in 2018, Oliver has 31 college games under his belt.

In those 31 games, Oliver has a whopping 52 tackles for loss, 13.5 sacks, five forced fumbles, and 10 batted passes. He’s one of the most athletic interior linemen to come around and if he falls in the NFL Draft for any reason, the Broncos would be fools to let him pass.

Oliver would join a defensive front that already includes a future Hall of Famer in Von Miller and Bradley Chubb, who appears on his way to breaking the rookie sack record.
