The two other offensive players to accept an invitation were Alabama offensive tackle J.C. Latham and LSU wideout Brian Thomas Jr.
It’s considered an especially strong draft on the offensive side of the ball, but five of the 13 attendees will be defensive players.
Three of those players are edge rushers: Alabama’s Dallas Turner, UCLA’s Laiatu Latu and Missouri’s Darius Robinson. For Robinson, the draft will be a homecoming, having grown up in nearby Southfield, Michigan, and attended Canton High.
Turner is in the running to be the first defensive player drafted, but two cornerbacks expected to attend this year’s draft also could be in the running. They include Turner’s Crimson Tide teammate, Terrion Arnold, as well as Toledo’s Quinyon Mitchell, who is trying to be the highest Rockets player drafted since the Denver Broncos selected Dan Williams 11th overall in the 1993 NFL Draft.
