The 2023 NFL Draft is now just a few weeks away, and the rumor mill is certainly churning. Tennessee could have as many as three players come off of the board in the first round, depending on how teams view Hendon Hooker and Jalin Hyatt. Steady right tackle Darnell Wright has been leading the way as a projected top 20 overall selection.

Wright, by all accounts, has had a fantastic draft process. He started out at the Senior Bowl, where he was named a top performer of the week. That has continued through the NFL Combine, Pro Day and apparently in individual meetings with teams.
