The East-West Shrine Bowl once again proved its worth as a premier pre-draft showcase, with alumni heard across all three days in Pittsburgh. UCF edge rusher Malachi Lawrence led the way, going 23rd overall to the Dallas Cowboys to become just the fifth first-round pick in program history. LSU’s Harold Perkins Jr. slid to the sixth round but arrives in Atlanta with 17 career sacks, and his end goal is to earn a Hall of Fame gold jacket. Buffalo linebacker Red Murdock closed out the entire draft as “Mr. Irrelevant” at pick 257, holding the NCAA record with 17 career forced fumbles — breaking the mark set by Khalil Mack. And in a historic moment, Navy’s Landon Robinson and Eli Heidenreich were both selected in the seventh round, the first time two Midshipmen have been drafted in the same class since 1956.
