As Burnt Orange’s Nation draft preview continues, we’ll profile former Texas Longhorns defensive lineman Ta’Quon Graham.
The Temple product arrived to Austin in 2017 and ended his career appearing in 48 games, starting in 24 for the Longhorns. Graham was an honorable All-Big 12 mention in 2020 after starting in all nine games at defensive tackle for Texas.
Graham already possesses NFL-caliber strength and power, two traits that teams look for in an interior lineman. His physicality allows him to explode off the line and gain leverage on an offensive lineman. It also doesn't hurt that he’s 6’4 and weighs around 290 pounds.
