I think the focus was on the agent, a former Tech player.

I don't understand why no nfl scouting invite. He popped in games and on film more than anyone on the defense. Hell he was on the football freak players list since his sophomore year i believe.
Truly seems to be off the radar. However, he’s a 2x All-ACC DT, so I’m confident that NFL scouts know who he is.

Keylan Rutledge now being mocked in the first round
31. New England Patriots
Keylan Rutledge, G/C, Georgia Tech
This might not be the same level of surprise as the Patriots' Cole Strange pick was a few years back, but I haven't seen anyone put Rutledge in Round 1 yet. It could happen. In talking to teams over the past few weeks, Rutledge is viewed as a Day 1 or Day 2 prospect. He allowed just two sacks over 43 career starts. At this point, the Patriots need to protect Drake Maye, and even if it's viewed as a reach on draft day, this could be the guy to get the job done.

thanks for the link. Just a random thought when reading the list - there is a guy projected to go in round 1 from Toledo. In this day of NIL and the portal, I wonder how often we will see guys from the MAC or even lesser conferences go in round 1? We may never see the likes of Jerry Rice from MVS, Larry Allen from Sonoma State (R2), Phil Simms from Morehead State, etc. again.

Of course more talent will flow to the big programs, but scouting is never a perfect art and there will always be gems and late risers.
The kid from Toledo wasn't even projected to be drafted entering this season and was a third-round guy prior to the combine.
Trinidad Chambliss was still in D2 just one year ago. Now he's one of the best QBs in FBS and should be in the draft.
Bryce Lance, FCS WR from NDSU, is projected to be a 3rd rounder. Not too far off. Let's not forget his brother Trey Lance went 1st round, 3rd overall just five years ago.
