Saquon Barkley is in the midst of a media tour as he continues to train for the NFL Draft, and while it's a certainty that he'll do many interviews and pose for plenty of pictures along the way, there is no guarantee related to when he'll hear his name called in Arlington, Tex., later this month.

Few former Nittany Lions have garnered as much pre-draft praise as the tailback and 2017 unanimous All-American has, and the love affair didn't end during a recent visit with NFL Network analysts Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks for a taping of their Move the Sticks Podcast's 360 series.

Highlights from the visit, courtesy of NFL Media, can be found below, along with the full episode and the latest details on where Barkley might land in the pros.

Outlook 1: New York

New Giants head coach Pat Shurmur has a lot to figure out before draft day, as he and new general manager Dave Gettleman have plenty of holes that need plugged and maybe have just one shot to find Eli Manning's eventual replacement.

Could the NFC East franchise really pass on Barkley at No. 2, though?

NFL circles are buzzing about what the Giants will do once Cleveland picks; if the Browns leave Sam Darnold on the board, will the G-Men pounce to take the former USC passer? If not, will N.C. State end Bradley Chubb be in play? Or, could they just move down and collect picks to help fill out the depth chart?

One of the more recent mock drafts comes from The Ringer, and it sees Chubb going off the board after the Browns take Darnold, which could lead Barkley to the AFC after all.

Outlook 2: Cleveland

The long-standing belief since the first mock drafts rolled out back in January is that Barkley would go at either No. 1 to Cleveland or end up with the Browns at No. 4.

Is that still likely?

A trade for Carlos Hyde threw a wrench into things back in March, as the former San Francisco 49ers running back seemingly meets the team's needs at the position. Yet, with a chance to transform their offense, a quarterback first and all-world caliber back second would still make sense, considering Hyde's age.

A combination of Darnold and Barkley wouldn't make the Browns immediate contenders, but it certainly would speed up the process to potentially reaching the playoffs soon for the first time since 2002.

Outlook 3: Denver

The Denver Broncos have been searching for a franchise quarterback ever since longtime team signal caller John Elway took over their football operations, but it hasn't found one, which has led most to assume that the franchise will pick a quarterback that it believes will finally be the one.

Paxton Lynch was the last first-round quarterback Denver selected, but with seemingly little hope of that working out longterm, it's likely that Elway picks his next best shot. Sporting News disagrees with that premise, though, as it has Barkley going off the board and onto the Mile High city.

"The Broncos will think about quarterback, for sure, but Barkley would fill their more pressing offensive skill need and would be the best player available," Vinnie Iyer writes.

It's worth noting, though, that trades at the top could drop a QB into Elway's lap, which might ultimately make this April prediction invalid.

Outlook 4: Indianapolis

When the Indianapolis Colts acquired a number of assets from the New York Jets so that they could move up to No. 3 while the Colts moved down to No. 6, most assumed that they would be out of the running for Barkley simply because he'd be off the board before they went on the clock.

What if that is not the case, though?

As noted above by the potential Tampa selection, Barkley could end up falling out of the top-five, and if he does, the Colts may just hit the daily double of having received a bunch of picks while still getting a player who could change the franchise's longterm outlook.

The folks over at 247Sports see this as a distinct possibility, and how it happens is simple: Teams above Indianapolis all take a quarterback after the Giants take Chubb.

Outlook 5: Tampa Bay

Already home to Chris godwin and Donovan Smith, is it possible that the Buccaneers could add a third former Nittany Lion to their roster?It's an idea that was floated by CBS Sports' Will Brinson in his latest mock draft, and the logic is simple: Movement at the top of the draft may have a domino effect on a number of players, including Barkley." I get that people think Barkley won't fall this far, and that's fine," Will Brinson writes."But he is a running back, and running backs aren't guaranteed to go top five when there are nearly a half dozen quality quarterback prospects."It's a valid point, as one can never be certain of when a team will feel so compelled to move up for a passer it wants that it mortgages its future to do so.

What they're saying: Bucky Brooks

"Saquon Barkley is a solar system player. When you have a player of this caliber, everything on offense revolves around him," Brooks says on the Moving the Sticks 360 podcast.

"He is a can't miss prospect at the running back position. He should dominate at the NFL level."

What they're saying: Charles Huff

"The one thing that separates Saquon from a lot of players is he's very inquisitive. He wants to know why, why, why," said on the podcast.

"I think Saquon Barkley is the most complete running back in the last 10 years ... when you put all of his attributes together, it's hard to find flaws and that to me is what makes him elite."

"Honestly, you can't say enough about Saquon as a player but really as a person," Gesicki said on the podcast.

"He does so many great things on the field but he's just such a great guy to talk to, an awesome teammate ... it's been unbelievable having him as a teammate the last three seasons. You can't really say enough about him."

What they're saying: James Franklin

"I describe him like a Frankenstein running back. If you had to choose all of the qualities you were looking for to build a back, he's got them. He's got the body type, the intelligence, the leadership, the speed, the quickness, the power. He can catch the ball out of the backfield. I think that's what makes him special, the combination of traits he has," Franklin told Jeremiah and Brooks.

"I would make the argument that he's the most valuable player in college football. And there's no doubt he's the most exciting. I mean, he's made some plays - I've been doing this 23 years at every level including the NFL and he's made some plays that even me, my mouth is wide open watching some of the things he's able to do."
