Finally some of the draft experts are seeing what Texas fans (and anyone who watched Texas games) already knew: defensive tackle Lamarr Houston is one of the defensive lineman in the country. After his incredible season, his performance in the Senior Bowl and in last week’s NFL scouting combine has him on everyone’s list of NFL Draft fast risers. Check out what NFL.com’s Bucky Brooks said : LaMarr Houston, DT, Texas: Houston continued to build on the momentum generated from his solid showing at the Senior Bowl. The mammoth defender impressed scouts with his exceptional display of speed, power and athleticism while going through drills. Although Houston’s performance may not be enough to catapult him into the first round, it has made the former Longhorn one of the coveted sleepers in this draft. Be sure to also check out these video highlights and interview with Houston from the combine.

UTEP cornerback Cornelius Brown might not be on many draft boards, but after his performance in the Texas vs. The Nation All Star game in El Paso, Texas, on Saturday, scouts might want to take a closer look. Brown returned a fumble 35 yards for the game’s first touchdown with about 9:40 remaining in the first half and gave Texas the momentum to earn a 36-17 win. Brown, who was named the game’s MVP, also downed a punt at the 3-yard line. Brown was the highlight among the 30 players from the nonautomatic-qualifying schools who participated in the game. Marshall’s Albert McClellan scored on an interception return for Texas late in the game, which helped turn the contest into a rout. Said Brown after the game: “I wanted to give the fans something to cheer about before this game and I did.”
