ESPN’s Field Yates has released an updated mock draft prior to the NFL draft in April. The Georgia Bulldogs continue to produce elite NFL talent on a yearly basis, as the analyst projects three former Bulldogs to be selected in the first- and second-round. Yates’ mock draft features Georgia offensive tackle Monroe Freeling at No.
13, linebacker CJ Allen at No. 34, and defensive tackle Christen Miller at No. 44.
Freeling is projected to be drafted by the Los Angeles Rams (previously the Atlanta Falcons' first-round pick), while Allen lands with the Buffalo Bills. Yates has Miller being drafted by the New York Jets in the middle part of the second-round. Monroe Freeling is considered to be one of the top offensive linemen available in the draft.
At 6-foot-7, 315 pounds, Freeling is an extremely athletic and versatile lineman despite weighing over 300 pounds. The former Georgia star ran an impressive 4. 93 second 40-yard dash at the NFL combine.
