Dan Hanzus of NFL.com shared the list Thursday, hours ahead of the Round 1 picks to be announced.
Here are all 22 song selections, in alphabetical order by player, with SEC alumni in bold:
Jaire Alexander, CB, Louisville: “How Bout Now”, Drake

Saquon Barkley, RB, Penn State: “No Promises”, A Boogie Wit da Hoodie

It’s no surprise to see Drake is incredibly popular. He appears five times on the list, including Roquan Smith and Derrius Guice both selecting the Toronto hit-maker’s recent chart-topper “God’s Plan.”
At least UCF’s Shaq Griffin didn’t pick “We are the Champions.”
