A full day of drafting is in the books, and Myles Jack isn't the only massively talented prospect still waiting to hear his name called.

Here are three potential impact skill players still available, likely to be drafted on Day 2:

RB Derrick Henry, Alabama – Henry earned pretty much every trophy available to him last year — the Heisman, Maxwell, Doak Walker, three CMAs, a Grammy, two local Emmys, etc. He was the centerpiece of a punishing Alabama run game, dominant in the biggest moments, and he was a freak at the combine. In the right team context, running behind an O-line that allows a clean first step, he'll be a beast as a pro.

WR Sterling Shepard, Oklahoma – Smooth, quick and gifted with terrific hands, Shepard has the potential be a high-volume slot receiver in his first NFL season, if he finds the right landing spot. He caught 86 balls for 1288 yards and 11 spikes for the Sooners last season, and rarely missed a catchable throw.

RB Kenneth Dixon, Louisiana Tech – Dixon doesn't do anything quite as well as Ezekiel Elliott, but he offers a similarly complete skill set. He possesses quick feet, great instincts and elusiveness, plus excellent receiving skills. He can make an impact as a committee member in his first season.
