6. Joe Mixon, RB, Oklahoma
Mixon's off-the-field problems are likely to cause him to slip during the draft, but based on talent alone, he's a first-round prospect. In two seasons at Oklahoma, he racked up 3,450 all-purpose yards (2,207 rushing, 894 rushing, 529 return) and 27 touchdowns in 25 games. That's 138.0 all-purpose yards and 1.08 touchdowns per game, which suggest the kind of immense impact he can make.
He's going to be a controversial pick and likely a controversial player, and there is a bit of an unknown here because of that. But if we're merely judging his fantasy prospects, he has to rank pretty high due to his amalgam of size, athleticism, versatility and elite production. (Getty)
