"Anthony had a tremendous week at the Senior Bowl; he would allow Clay Matthews to move back to OLB full time," NFL analyst Charles Davis on Anthony's skyrocketing status after the Senior Bowl.

Both players stayed for their senior year at Clemson and more than likely helped their draft status because of their extremely productive 2014 seasons.

The NFL combine can make these projections a reality beginning for Beasley and Anthony on Feb. 22. Other Clemson players that will be participating include Grady Jarrett, Corey Crawford, Tavaris Barnes, Garry Peters and Bradley Pinion.
