Jeremy Sprinkle latest addition to suddenly prolific Arkansas tight end draft tree

Arkansas has had 26 players drafted this decade, but just five went earlier than the fourth round. The Hogs could have as many as six or seven players drafted this year, but most look like third-day picks.

The exception could be tight end Jeremy Sprinkle, who could be a second-day guy. Interestingly, the only player Arkansas has had drafted earlier than the third round this decade is tight end Hunter Henry, who went in the second round in 2016; that’s the guy Sprinkle replaced in Arkansas’ starting lineup.

Arkansas tight ends have become popular picks. The Razorbacks have had a tight end selected in four of the past six drafts, including each of the past two.
