Thomas Bingham
Apr 28, 2020

We are sad to say that this week's episode of Locker Talk ATX/SATX will be the last one for awhile. Before Thomas Bingham and Wac take a break, they react to the NFL Draft, mention notable Texas high school football players that were involved, and evaluate the picks that the Dallas Cowboys and Houston Texans made.

In addition, they discuss the UFC's announcement to hold multiple events in May and the NBA's decision to open some practice facilities on May 8th. Then, they wrap up the show with a special message to everyone that's been involved with and supported Locker Talk ATX/SATX, The VYPE Hill Country Show and other VYPE coverage over the last two school years.

I-35 Area TXHSFB Alums Hear Name At NFL Draft In Sports' Short Return

Thomas Bingham
Apr 27, 2020

Interstate 35 is one of the most important roads in the United States because it connects six American states (Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas) and gives the country another entrance into North American neighbor Mexico. Significant metropolitan areas have also developed along it, so there's enough talent and competition to prepare athletes for the highest levels of sport. That was evident in the 2020 NFL Draft because 15 of Texas' 33 high school alums-turned draft picks came from the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex or the Austin and San Antonio areas of the state.

COVID-19 has cancelled and postponed many events, but the NFL found a safe way to host its annual draft on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The highly anticipated three-day event featured a new virtual format that allowed it to go on as scheduled. It also provided sports fans with an important sense of hope and gave them the opportunity to cheer for their favorite teams and college players.

For Texas, there was a lot of celebration for the draft picks that previously competed near the highway. The first large in-state area you come across when you travel north to south on it is the Metroplex, which produced a dozen draft picks from its boatload of high school alums. DeSoto recorded two draft pick graduates over the weekend in Laviska Shenault (2nd Round, Pick 42 for Jacksonville Jaguars) and James Proche (6th Round, Pick 201 for Baltimore Ravens), while South Grand Prairie's Jeffrey Okudah (Pick 3) and Waxahachie's Jalen Reagor (Pick 21) were first round selections for the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles.

On the second day, the Baltimore Ravens drafted a pair of North Texas athletes in the third round. McKinney North's Justin Madubuike heard his name called with the 71st pick and Sachse's Devin Duvernay was later announced at pick 92.

The third day began with the fourth round of the draft, which saw Cleburne's Reggie Robinson II go 123rd to the Dallas Cowboys. Then, Cedar Hill's Trevis Gipson (Pick 155 for Chicago Bears) and Arlington Martin's Jason Huntley (Pick 172 for Detroit Lions) followed in the fifth round, the Cincinnati Bengals grabbed Garland's Hakeem Adeniji with the 180th pick in the sixth round, and Wylie East's Eno Benjamin (Pick 222 for Arizona Cardinals) and Mansfield Summit's Vernon Scott (Pick 236 for Green Bay Packers) were included in the seventh round.

The next notable area along I-35 is Central Texas. Before you arrive in Austin, you'll reach two important stops on future Minnesota Viking James Lynch's journey to the 130th pick in the fourth round of this year's NFL Draft. They include the towns of Waco and Round Rock, where he played for Baylor University and Round Rock High School. The region was also put on the map when the Baltimore Ravens made La Grange's J. K. Dobbins a second round draft pick at 55th overall.

Then, the road extends to the South Texas cities of San Antonio and Laredo before reaching the United States/Mexico international border. The Alamo City area produced Converse Judson's Alton Robinson, who was picked up by the Seattle Seahawks with the 148th pick in the fifth round.
