In football, no list or polls are ever too early. With that in mind, here are UCLA's top 5 prospects for next year's NFL draft.

Jason Fray over at Bleacher Report has put together the top 5 players who could be among the discussion come next year.

There are some obvious choices, like Myles Jack and Paul Perkins. But Fray makes some surprising selections, like offensive lineman Conor McDermott. Right off the bat, Fray knows this is a surprising selection. But he does bring up some valid points to justify McDermott's inclusion.

"Last year, the former tight end was inserted as a starter on the offensive line during the contest versus Cal," Fray writes. "Coincidentally (or not), the sack totals allowed by the unit decreased considerably throughout the remainder of the year. In essence, McDermott instantly became UCLA's best offensive lineman."

And there you have it.
