Rivals names 3 SEC schools among 6 colleges with surprisingly good 2019 NFL Draft classes
The 2019 NFL Draft has come and gone, and the SEC set a record for most players picked in a single draft, sending 64 players to the pro ranks.
Alabama sent 10 players to the pros, but other programs also fared well during the three-day event in Nashville.
Along with Texas, Washington and West Virginia, Rivals said three SEC programs had surprisingly good hauls at the draft. Those programs are:
- Ole Miss
- Mississippi State
- Texas A&M
Mississippi State had five players picked, Ole Miss had six and Texas A&M had seven players hear their names called.
Read what Rivals had to say about each team’s draft class here.
One fan’s “surprisingly good” draft class is another fan’s “surprisingly disappointing” previous season(s).
“Texas gets attention for their lack of draft picks but don’t sleep on the Aggies when it comes to producing NFL players.” – Might want to check that article again.
