North Texas has three players on the CBS Draft Board, but none picked to go in the seven-round draft.

Players to look out for are: Derek Thompson (QB), Brelan Chancellor (WR) and Zed Evans (SS) as the latter two players are seniors and Thompson is a redshirt senior.

For UNLV, they have two players on the board in Tim Cornett (RB) and Jerry Rice Jr. (WR), both on the board, but not projected to be selected in the ’14 NFL Draft.
