When I looked ahead at the next year for UNC’s potential draftees two years ago, I was almost hilariously wrong. I said Josh Downs was a late first-early second rounder, and he slipped to the third (though his rookie year production sides with me over the NFL). I called Myles Murphy a sure draft pick in 2023; he basically was never better than in his first season playing and is now an undrafted free agent with the Cardinals. I thought Tony Grimes and Ja’Qurious Conley were likely draft picks with a change in defensive coordinator helping revitalize them.
