The Washington Huskies football team will likely to have several program alumni hear their names called during the NFL Draft, which is set to take place from April 23-25 in Pittsburgh.

The most attention this draft cycle has been toward the Huskies' 2025 leading receiver Denzel Boston, who has been projected to get drafted in the first round by many publications.

However, several other Washington players are getting a good look by NFL teams. The Huskies had four players aside from Boston invited to the NFL Combine: cornerbacks Ephesians Prysock and Tacario Davis, running back Jonah Coleman and offensive lineman Carver Willis.

Davis and Prysock have both raised their draft stock between the combine and the Huskies' pro day. Willis seems to be garnering a lot of interest in his own right.

According to a report from Sports Illustrated reporter Justin Melo, Willis has had either in-person or virtual meetings with 30 NFL teams, including the Jacksonville Jaguars, San Francisco 49ers, Las Vegas Raiders, Denver Broncos and others.

Willis just played one season with Washington but entered with some accolades under his belt and instantly made an impression.

Willis transferred to the Huskies from Kansas State. While he was with the Wildcats, he was named honorable mention All-Big 12 in 2023 and was a part of an offensive line that was a semifinalist for the Joe Moore award, which is annually awarded to the best offensive line in the country.

Willis played 11-of-12 games with Kansas State in 2024 at right tackle. While he was with Washington, the former Wildcat made the transition to the blindside and played 10 games at left tackle. He missed three games due to injury but was still named honorable mention All-Big Ten by coaches and media.

Willis earned the program's John P. Angel award at the team awards banquet, which is annually awarded to the best Huskies offensive lineman.

Since entering the draft cycle, Willis has gotten work done all over the offensive line. He played guard at the Senior Bowl and snapped balls while practicing as a center at both the combine and the pro day.

Willis currently projects as a guard or center at the NFL level but his versatility at both tackle positions will allow any team that drafts him versatility to move him all over the offensive line.

Willis is currently projected to get picked in the mid rounds (third-to-fifth) and will likely be a valuable backup who could see NFL action his rookie year as an extra offensive lineman.
