Included in the list was Baylor wide receiver Jalen Hurd, a senior transfer from the University of Tennessee who will be eligible for the Bears this fall.

6. Jalen Hurd, WR, Baylor

The last we heard from Hurd, he left Butch Jones' crumbling program in the midst of the 2016 season and enrolled at Baylor, where he sat out last season under NCAA transfer rules. Let's catch you up: He's gone from one of the SEC's top running backs, at 6-4 and 240 pounds, to a 229-pound wide receiver at Baylor. That transition alone, at his size, requires rare athletic skills. Hurd can run the 40-yard dash in 4.45 seconds with eye-popping explosiveness (10-10 broad jump). He's also been clocked at less than 4 seconds in the 20-yard shuttle, something only three players at this year's NFL combine accomplished.

In his career at Tennesse, Hurd totaled more than 3,000 total rushing and receiving yards with 26 total touchdowns.
