Friday was the deadline for college underclassmen to declare for the 2010 NFL Draft. The NFL will review each player's written application and grant special eligibility for the draft as long as they are three years removed from high school. Here is a list of the 55 players who have renounced their remaining college eligibility to declare for the draft. Once a player declares, he has a 72-hour window to rescind the declaration as long as he has not hired an agent.
The following list of players has been compiled by PhiladelphiaEagles.com draft analyst Chris Steuber and CollegeFootballTalk.com. Last year, 46 players were granted early entry into the NFL Draft. Two of them were drafted by the Eagles - wide receiver Jeremy Maclin and running back LeSean McCoy. The NFL will unveil the final, official list sometime in February.
