As the NFL Draft is now just a day away the mocks are heating up. The Aggies will be well represented over the weekend beginning with Thursday's Round 1 from Kansas City.

ESPN's Matt Miller offered his Rounds 1-7 the day before 259 names are called as NFL teams do their best to predict the future of prospects.

The first Aggie taken per Miller will be in Round 3 when Devon Achane goes to Miami.

84. Miami Dolphins

Devon Achane, RB, Texas A&M

Even after re-signing the entire running back room in free agency this year, the Dolphins should look for an upgrade. Achane has the speed to create huge plays in Mike McDaniels' offense, as evidenced by a 4.32-second run in the 40-yard dash. He is undersized at 5-9 and 188 pounds, but he is the draft's best chunk-play threat at running back.

The Dolphins clearly need help running the ball, and with Achane's pass-catching ability, he could play the part of a safety valve for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

The next Aggies player off the board is also in Round 3 as the Cardinals take safety Antonio Johnson.

With Budda Baker requesting a trade, the Cardinals could very quickly lose the best defender on the roster. Johnson could lighten that loss by playing a similarly versatile role. He had 132 tackles over the past two years.

The Chargers bring a little piece of College Station to Los Angeles with the selection of corner Jaylon Jones in Round 6 with the 200th overall pick.
