6. New York Giants: Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas
Like Campbell at LSU, Banks immediately became the starting left tackle as a true freshman and took another jump last season as a sophomore. The Longhorns offense lost several weapons, but its offensive line will be an important strength in front of QB Quinn Ewers in 2024.14. Pittsburgh Steelers: Quinn Ewers, QB, Texas
Ewers will be a polarizing prospect, but he made the right choice returning to school. Whether he is drafted in the top half of Round 1 in 2025 will depend on how he performs this season. Still only 21 years old, he will have better experience (25-plus starts, 1,000-plus pass attempts) than most of the other quarterbacks in this class.24. Dallas Cowboys: Isaiah Bond, WR, Texas
With Xavier Worthy, Adonai Mitchell and Ja’Tavion Sanders now in the NFL, Bond will become Ewers’ top target this fall. The Alabama transfer has modest size, but his speed and ball skills make him an exciting weapon.
