Since the 2012 draft pick, 3 NTs have been selected in the first round, and not one DT (4-3 included) was in the top 10. Lets just pretend that there are two teams in 2017 that would draft a NT in the first round this year (there arent).
Lets also assume Augusta plays the best year of his career. Unless he takes over games, which he hasnt yet, he wont go higher than the pair of Bama NTs alone.
Couple that with his struggle with staying at good weight, and you will see a lot of teams pass on him because he is higher risk.
There is a better chance of him going late-rounds than Round 1. Unfortunately, thats my objective opinion.
