We keep hearing this year after year about "next year's draft" and how many times has that panned out? One year, when Matt Barkley was a junior, he was projected as a top pick in the following draft (2013). After his senior year and a shoulder injury, he wasn't picked until the 4th round and hasn't had much of an NFL career to-date. Our own EJ Manuel became the 1st QB taken with the 18th pick in that draft while other notables from the prior year like Landry Jones & Tyler Wilson also dropped to the 4th.
