Oklahoma State football: Top 3 Cowboy prospects for 2020 NFL Draft
By John Scimeca
Which three Oklahoma State football standouts are most likely to be selected in the virtual, live-streamed 2020 NFL Draft?
True, it’s not supposed to be a banner year of Oklahoma State football players heading into the NFL this year. The Cowboys’ two biggest stars of 2019, Chuba Hubbard and Tylan Wallace, are both returning to Stillwater for the upcoming fall. Some publications have even listed the Pokes as a preseason top-15 squad.
In the last three years, Oklahoma State has seen eight of its players drafted. The most OSU players chosen in one NFL Draft is five, a mark set on four different occasions: 1967, 1977, 1984 and 1985.
OSU tied its highest mark in the last 35 years with four draftees in 2018 and had two prospects drafted in 2019: running back Justice Hill in the fourth round by the Baltimore Ravens and linebacker Jordan Brailford in the seventh round by the Washington Redskins.
After 2019’s 8-5 finish, several former Cowboy players are moving on and looking to continue their careers professionally.
