Texas lost a tough one to Oklahoma. It was their first loss of the season. Their offense played well, as they scored 30 points. Worthy helped stretch the defense and had a productive day. He finished the game with eight catches for 108 yards.
While the loss will sting, Worthy continues to show how good of a player he is throughout the season. He has shown good speed, ball tracking and some run-after-the-catch ability as well. Worthy also has value as a returner. He is likely going to be a first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
2. Devin Leary, QB, Kentucky Wildcats
Kentucky suffered their first loss of the season to Georgia. It looked like there was a good offensive gameplan, but too many penalties derailed the game from the start. Devin Leary did not have his best performance. He finished the game 10/26 passing for 128 yards.
Leary’s stock has fallen over the last two seasons. His accuracy comes and goes. He missed some open receivers in this one. It may not have changed the outcome of the game, but it certainly would’ve helped his stock. He really needs to find his form down the stretch of the season to improve his draft stock.
3. Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia Bulldogs
Georgia had their best performance of the season against Kentucky. They won the game 51-13 and their offense was on fire. Carson Beck had his best game as a quarterback and Bowers was able to provide him with a great target. He had seven catches for 132 yards and a touchdown.
Not only is Bowers proving that he should likely be a top 10 pick, he could start making some noise in the Heisman Trophy race. He has great versatility and speed for his size. There is no doubt he will be the first tight end selected in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Missouri lost to LSU in a game where not much defense was played. The Tigers allowed 49 points and only scored 39 themselves. Some of their defenders played well though, which includes Kris Abrams-Draine. He had five total tackles and two passes defended.
Abrams-Draine had some timely tackles and showed that he can do more than cover. He has good ball skills and they were on display as well. Abrams-Draine has been one of the more impressive corners in the country this season and should be selected in the first few rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft.
5. Jordan Morgan, OT, Arizona Wildcats
Arizona stuck with USC through two overtimes with a backup quarterback in, but ended up losing in a third overtime. Their offense played well given the circumstances and their offensive line only gave up three sacks. Jordan Morgan played well and solidified his stock as a prospect.
Morgan has played well against some big opponents already this season, including USC and Washington. There are still more tough games on the schedule where Morgan can prove his worth. The 2024 draft class looks like it will be strong at tackle, but Morgan could play his way up to being the third off the board.
