The 2019 NFL Draft is more than just a few months away.

Regardless, it’s never to early to take a sneak peek as to who “experts” believe are the top prospects. Is a QB slated to go No. 1?

Not according to NFL.com’s Bucky Brooks and Daniel Jeremiah. The best player is a pass-rusher who comes from a B1G school.

Here’s what they had to say:

1. Nick Bosa, DE, Ohio State

“Bosa was having a dominant season before suffering a core muscle injury against TCU 10 days ago. He is still the premier defensive talent in college football. — DJ”

Bosa did suffer an injury against TCU and may not be re-evaluated until November. That will certainly hurt Ohio State, but the Buckeyes have a lot of talent and depth on its defensive line.

That being said, there is no other Nick Bosa.
