There are four bowl games on the schedule for Wednesday, including Texas A&M vs. Kansas State in the Texas Bowl at 9 p.m. ET.
NFL.com draft analyst Chad Reuter helped prep us with a top 10 list that highlights the best next-level prospects for the day, and it includes two Texas A&M representatives: safety Justin Evans (No. 4) and defensive end Myles Garrett (No. 1).
Here are the complete rankings with analysis for both Aggies:
10. Jordan Willis, DE, Kansas State
9. Dorian Johnson, OG, Pittsburgh
8. Rasul Douglas, CB, West Virginia
7. Marcus Williams, S, Utah
6. Lowell Lotulelei, DT, Utah
5. David Njoku, TE, Miami
4. Justin Evans, S, Texas A&M
“General managers looking for a difference-maker at the safety position are excited to see Evans show off his athleticism and aggressiveness in this game. The second-team All-SEC pick is a big hitter when free to attack downhill. Evans hasn’t made as big of an impact since the midway point of the season, and missed some tackles in conference play. A big game vs. Kansas State would be reassuring for scouts.”
3. Dan Feeney, G, Indiana
2. Brad Kaaya, QB, Miami
1. Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M
“Garrett is regarded as the best player in college football by many NFL scouts. Injuries have limited his production in the second half of the year, save for a four-sack effort against undermanned Texas-San Antonio. The Texas Bowl gives him a chance to show scouts that the high ankle sprain that bothered him throughout October and November is a thing of the past. When healthy, he’s an explosive pass rusher and relentless rush defender with an excellent NFL future.”
