Top of the class: the five Longhorns most likely to be selected in April's NFL Draft

Texas's 2018 draft class is slated to be the program's deepest since 2015, when the Longhorns had five players selected in the NFL Draft. The Longhorns had just one selection in both 2016 and 2017, with a slim crop of NFL prospects in line with the team's back-to-back losing seasons.

Things should improve on the NFL front in 2018. The class from head coach Tom Herman's first season projects to be the best in recent memory, especially on the defensive side of the ball. So which Longhorns are most likely to be selected in the NFL Draft later this month?
