Could Michigan State defensive tackle Jacob Slade hear his name called in this week’s NFL Draft? Matt Miller of ESPN thinks so.
Miller released an updated NFL mock draft version on Sunday, which saw a pair of Spartans getting selected. Wide receiver Jayden Reed went in the third round to Cleveland, and Miller has Slade going as the draft’s final pick (No. 259 overall) to the Houston Texans.
Slade battled injuries this past year and was able to only play in eight games for Michigan State. But he was impactful when he was on the field, recording 20 tackles with 3.5 for loss.
