Peppers is widely considered one of the top prospects in the 2017 draft. He is the best safety according to ProFootballFocus and the second best overall player according to CBSSports.com. It remains to be seen what position he'll play at the next level, but it's a safe bet that Peppers will be a hot commodity when he becomes available.
That won't necessarily happen this year, though. As InsideTheLeague points out, a player is not required to enter the draft if he consults with an agent.
Annual Nov/Dec/Jan #NFLdraft disclaimer - talking to agents DOES NOT (I repeat, DOES NOT) - make you ineligible or force you to enter draft

Peppers has a compelling - and lucrative - NFL future. After his strong sophomore season, it wouldn't be a surprise to see the 21-year-old take his talents to the next level.
