Way-too-early mock draft boards generally peg him as a 2017 first-rounder. (For example, CBSSports.com has King going No. 8 overall to his hometown Detroit Lions.)

King’s stated reasons for coming back to schoolwere to get his degree and complete unfinished business with his Hawkeye brothers. It would be a nice side bonus if, in the process, his 40 time goes down and his NFL Draft stock goes up.

“Me staying back another year,” he said, “put me in a position to be in the top three cornerbacks in the (draft).”
