All of the NFL draft hype in Durham has centered around presumed first-round pick Graham Barton, but another former Blue Devil will soon try to exert his will in the professional trenches.
All-ACC defensive lineman DeWayne Carter will be drafted in this year’s NFL draft, but where is he expected to go?
According to Mock Draft Database, a site that aggregates projections from experts and analysts all over the country, Carter is considered a fourth-rounder as of early April. The former Blue Devil is ranked as the site’s 111th overall player in the draft.
A quick scroll through Carter’s projected landing spots shows an even mixture of third- and fourth-round picks, however. He seems to be right along the edge of day two and day three, as of now.
No particular teams stand out as a favorite to draft the defensive lineman, but the Los Angeles Rams have popped up on a few recent mock drafts.
