With the combine over, and the NFL Draft quickly approaching, Missouri edge Zion Young is hoping to hear his name called on Day 1. The former Tiger had an impressive showing at the Senior Bowl, and a solid combine as well, putting him into the round one conversation. For ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr., there's no question as to where he feels Young should fall.

During ESPN's rundown of a mock draft, Young landed at No. 25 with the Chicago Bears, which prompted Kiper Jr. to say that might even be too low for the talented edge rusher.
