The rule is three years removed from high school. Jeremy Hill was a true sophomore who was drafted because he sat out a year for *cough* personal reasons.
ETA: My mistake. It is three years. That said, it is possible for a true sophomore to be drafted if there are extenuating circumstances: see above.

Yes. Three years removed from high school or 21 by a certain date which I forget

Yes,
Bruce Jordan Swilling the RB from Brother Martin will be a draft eligible true sophomore. He will turn 21 during his sophomore season.
Johnny Manziel was drafted after his redshirt somphomore season.

That's the MLB rule....NFL is 3 years removed from high school...no age stipulation at all. Enjoy the downvotes.
"Players who have been out of high school for at least three years are eligible for the NFL draft. The rules do not state that a player must attend college, but virtually all of the players selected in the NFL draft have played college football."
