First, T’Vondre was selected early on by the Tennessee Titans. The consensus view of Sweat slipping out of the early rounds apparently wasn’t one the Titans subscribed to despite Sweat’s DUI arrest two weeks ago.
Second, Adonai Mitchell slid all the way to no. 52, likely largely on reports that Mitchell was difficult in practice at both Georgia and Texas. Mitchell will now head to Indianapolis where he’ll get a fresh start.
And then the pleasant one… Jonathon Brooks became the second consecutive Longhorn to be selected the first running back in the NFL draft. He’s heading to Carolina.

Anyone who thought Texas lost to a lesser talented Washington team needs to think twice, particularly on offense.
Through the first three rounds, UW has had its QB, three wide receivers and both offensive tackles already taken.

Michigan currently leads with a total of seven players selected in the first. Texas sits at five thus far.
The Wolverines might have as many as 13 players selected by the end of today. That’s even heavier attrition than Texas is likely to see.
JT Sanders, Christian Jones and Jaylan Ford will all almost assuredly be drafted, which will give the Horns eight picks total for comparison.

Good luck to Jordan Whittington, Ryan Watts and Keilan Robinson today. Many think they are all on the fringe of being draft picks.
