Auburn Morning Rush: Roger McCreary, Malik Willis among best available

Another edition of the Auburn Morning Rush. We are focusing on the NFL draft this morning.

The weekend is upon us but before we dive into our weekend plans, there is the matter of the NFL draft going on. So plan your weekend accordingly. The next portion begins on Friday at 6 p.m. CT.

After the first 32 selections in the 2022 NFL draft, the action returns on Friday evening with rounds two and three. Still plenty of good contributors available to help NFL teams. Among those are two former Auburn Tigers.

As we march towards the continuation of the NFL draft, we will be closely monitoring the status of Auburn cornerback [autotag]Roger McCreary[/autotag]. He is the top-rated NFL draft prospect for the Tigers and should come off the board relatively early on Friday.

There is also former Auburn QB Malik Willis, who transferred to Liberty to play for Hugh Freeze. He should be one of the first quarterbacks off the board in round two, but we said that about him in round one.

There is the possibility that safety Smoke Monday could also come off the board in round three.

Check out these NFL draft updates ahead of rounds two and three on Friday:
