Just spent some quality time with the Pro Football Focus 2020 draft guide. Some highlights:
* Pac-12/Stanford schedule players on the Big Board: 7) QB Justin Herbert (Oregon), 14) EDGE Julian Okwara (Notre Dame), 15) WR Laviska Shenault (Colorado), 20) OT Walker Little (Stanford), 24) DI Levi Onwuzurike (Washington), 30) CB Paulson Adebo (Stanford), 35) QB KJ Costello (Stanford), 41) S Ashtyn Davis (Cal), 49) S Alohi Gilman (Notre Dame)
* Alabama, Clemson, and Stanford are the only teams with three players in the top 35.

* Stanford players in the draft projections (parenthetically with superlatives and NFL comparisons): Adebo is a 1st or 2nd projection (best ball skills, Jalen Mills), Little is a second round projection (Trent Williams), Costello is a 2nd round projection (best deep ball, Kyle Orton), TE Colby Parkinson is a 5th round projection (best in the red zone, Joseph Fauria)
