Oklahoma Sooners offensive tackle Anton Harrison has been a popular selection in several mock drafts. He seems to be the only Sooner consistent ly selected in the first round in 2023 NFL mock drafts.
The mock draft we’re looking at today is no different. Harrison is the lone Sooner selected in Touchdown Wire’s latest mock draft. Doug Farrar has the big fella joining his former teammate [autotag]Creed Humphrey[/autotag] in Kansas City to protect Patrick Mahomes. Farrar has Harrison being selected with the 30th overall pick in the draft.
[autotag]Orlando Brown Jr[/autotag]., another former Sooner, could be heading elsewhere in free agency. If Brown does find another home, the Chiefs will need another left tackle. Harrison fits that bill.
Harrison’s pass blocking is strong, and the Chiefs love to throw the ball. Making the transition from a run-heavy offense to Andy Reid’s pass-oriented scheme offense was a big transition to make when Orlando Brown Jr. was traded from the Baltimore Ravens to the Chiefs. Coming from a run-heavy offense himself, Harrison will have to adjust should he end up in Kansas City.
With Harrison likely finding his NFL home quite early in the draft, that’s yet another NFL lineman that was coached by Oklahoma Sooners’ offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh. Ben Powers, Creed Humphrey, Orlando Brown Jr., and Anton Harrison are just a few of the names that Bedenbaugh has seen through to the big leagues.
