Predicting which round each of Texas’ NFL draft prospects will be selected

The 2021 NFL draft is quickly approaching and there are eight Longhorns who will be a part of the event. Which round will they be selected?

The upcoming 2021 NFL draft is a little over a week away and there will be eight different players representing Texas throughout the three-day event: Sam Ehlinger, Samuel Cosmi, Joseph Ossai, Caden Sterns, Ta’Quon Graham, Chris Brown, Brennan Eagles and Tarik Black.

It’s never a sure thing in terms of where each player will be selected, but after a few months of draft evaluation, it does become easier to get a general idea of the rounds that each prospect is expected to be taken off of the board.

Cosmi and Ossai appear to be top-60 picks, whereas Graham and Sterns both look like fringe day two or day three prospects. Ehlinger could be a noteworthy day three name, while Brown, Eagles and Black are all up in the air and could potentially not get drafted.

Given the players skills, game film, Senior Bowl (Graham and Ehlinger) and pro day performances, I’ll take a stab at which round each of Texas’ draft prospects will land in.
