A couple Red Raiders make the cut...

16. Tyler Owens, DB, Texas Tech

At 6-2, 205 pounds, Owens is something of an eye-catching talent who could become an elite player on special teams. He’s a big, explosive safety who should excel in Indy. Last offseason, he vertical jumped over 40 inches. He also was clocked at more than 23 MPH in a game.

24. Myles Cole, DL, Texas Tech​

Last year, the Red Raiders produced long D-lineman Tyree Wilson (6-6, 271 pounds with 35 5/8-inch arms), who went No. 7 overall to the Raiders. Cole is even bigger and longer with an 87-inch wingspan. He wasn’t as much of a problem for offenses as Wilson, but he’s an intriguing prospect. His max speed at Texas Tech was 20.3 MPH, which was an area he really improved upon after transferring from Louisiana-Monroe.
