The Big 12 doesn’t have a lot of first round prospects for the 2015 NFL Draft so who projects as a star at the next level?

West Virginia wide receiver Kevin White is the premier draft prospect from the Big 12 in the 2015 NFL Draft and should hear his name called in the top-10 picks when the draft begins on Thursday, but how many of his leaguemates will follow him in the first round?

Texas will have a player drafted this year after they were somehow shutout in last year’s draft for the first time since 1938 in a startling wake-up call for the state of the program, but Malcom Brown will snap that streak and should be a first round pick as well.

Other than White and Brown there may not be another player from the Big 12 taken in the first round, but that could change depending on how teams perceive Oklahoma wide receiver and former Missouri Tiger, Dorial Green-Beckham who has first round ability but enough off-the-field concerns that some teams may take him off their board entirely.

Let’s take a closer look at White, Brown and Green-Beckham and the rest of the top 10 NFL Draft prospects from the Big 12 and where they could be drafted.
