NFL withholds draft invite from potential first-round pick to avoid awkward TV moment: report

There will only be three wide receivers present at the NFL Draft in a couple of weeks, but that trio will not include Quentin Johnston.

The TCU standout is expected to be a first-round selection, but he still was not granted an invite from the league to the draft in Kansas City later this month.

Experts believe Johnston will likely be a late selection within the first 31 picks (the Miami Dolphins were docked their first-round pick).

However, it’s certainly a possibility that a first-round talent could fall later than expected on the first night, or even worse — into the second round.
