Mock Drafts: Where Will UW Players Go?

Creating a thread to track mock drafts as they come out over the next few months and where they believe UW players are likely to go.

First up, Dane Brugler of the Athletic:




17. Cleveland Browns: Byron Murphy, CB, Washington

Opposite Denzel Ward, the Browns received sporadic, yet admirable play from corners like T.J. Carrie and Terrance Mitchell, but there is room for upgrades on the Browns cornerback depth chart. Like Ward, Murphy doesn’t look like much physically, but his ball instincts, toughness and smooth athleticism are why he projects as an impact starting corner in the NFL.


31. Kansas City Chiefs: Taylor Rapp, S, Washington

Injuries decimated the Chiefs’ depth at safety this season, creating plenty of unknown, including with Eric Berry. Rapp is a safety option who will be easy for coaches to like with his high football IQ and relentless competitive nature. He isn’t an elite size (6-0, 200) or speed prospect, but he makes up for that with his instincts and range to play free or strong safety.

    How could kansas city, who was "decimated with injuries", draft Rapp with his well documented hip injury problems?

    I hear his hip injury was so bad that he even had to sit out the Rose Bowl. He tried as hard as he could to rehab, and even begged coach to let him play. But he was just too injured.

    Kalebs numbers might freak out some GMs and he might go early in the second

    Rapp’s mind is like a computer with the heart of a samurai!
