Mel Kiper projects Jaylen Wright’s landing spot in the 2024 NFL Draft

The 2024 NFL Draft is quickly approaching, meaning a handful of Tennessee Volunteers are about to learn their professional destinations. The highest rated of the bunch is running back Jaylen Wright, especially after his lights out NFL Combine performance.

In what’s being viewed as a pretty weak running back class, Wright has a real shot of being the first back taken next week. Projections have zeroed in on a round three landing spot, and ESPN’s Mel Kiper joined that line of thinking with his latest mock draft on Monday morning.
