As for Mock Drafts, there's been several Dawgs selected in way too early 2023 NFL Mock Drafts.

Jalen Carter, DT

A consensus first round pick in every mock draft on the internet. Jalen Carter has a potential to be the first overall selection along with fellow defensive star in Alabama's Will Anderson. He will be a first round pick, it's a matter of just how high and how many guady plays does he make on the way to doing so.

Kelee Ringo, CB

Ringo made the flash plays neccesary to warrant the rankings he carried coming out of high school in his first year as a starter in 2021. He made arguably the biggest defensive play in school history, and he's arguably the most physically gifted cornerback ever at a school that's featured Champ Bailey in it's passed. With Ringo's 6'2 frame, 10.3 100-meter speed, and solid redshirt freshman tape, if he puts together another solid campaign, he could vault himself into the top-10 of next year's draft.
