With just two regular-season games left on the schedule, many fans are shifting their attention to the 2023 NFL draft.
Texas did not have a single player selected in the 2022 NFL draft, but that should dramatically change this year.
Bijan Robinson is widely considered the top running back for the 2023 NFL draft. The Longhorns have several other players such as Jordan Whittington, Roschon Johnson and Keondre Coburn that could hear their name called fairly early as well.
ESPN’s Todd McShay released his updated 2023 NFL draft rankings on Thursday. McShay listed his top 32 prospects in order, and Texas’ Bijan Robinson landed within the top 10.
This is not meant to be a mock draft or projected draft order of any kind. NFL teams often draft for a particular position of need rather than the best player available and vice versa.
Here’s a full look at McShay’s top 32 prospects in the 2023 NFL draft.
