The South Carolina football program is gearing up for a potentially historic showing in the upcoming NFL Draft, with a record-breaking number of players invited to the NFL Combine. All-American Nick Emmanwori is projected to be a first-round pick by CBS Sports’ analysts, with predictions placing him anywhere from the 11th overall pick to the 30th. This would make him the highest-drafted South Carolina safety since 1979.
In addition to Emmanwori, several other Gamecocks players, including TJ Sanders and Kyle Kennard, have received high draft grades and are expected to be selected in the upcoming draft. Running back Rocket Sanders and cornerback O’Donnell Fortune are also likely to hear their names called on draft day, along with other players like Tonka Hemingway and Josh Simon.
The 2025 NFL Draft will take place from April 24th to April 26th in Green Bay, Wisconsin, with the first round kicking off on Thursday the 24th. The event will be broadcast on NFL Network, ABC, and the ESPN family of networks, with streaming available on NFL.com and the ESPN app.
