Five Longhorns projected in PFF’s two-round NFL mock draft

In 10 days the 2024 NFL draft will kick off in Detroit, Michigan.

Over a handful of Longhorns are expected to be taken off the board within the first two days. Texas defensive tackle Byron Murphy and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell appear to be the best bets for first-round selections.

In PFF’s latest two-round NFL mock draft, the Texas duo is once again projected in the first round and three other Longhorns are slotted in the second round. Mitchell and running back Jonathon Brooks reunite in Dallas, while Murphy and tight end Ja’Tavion Sanders become teammates again in Cincinnati.
