Chad Muma became the first Legend High School player to be drafted on Friday when the Jaguars selected the Wyoming inside linebacker in the third round. by KyleNewmanDP NFLDraft
Jacksonville’s pick of Muma at No. 70 overall wasn’t a surprise, seeing as Muma had a second- or third-round grade entering the draft and that the Jaguars were one of three teams that he had visits with.
Muma also visited with the Panthers and Broncos. Denver passed on Muma at No. 64 overall, electing instead to take Oklahoma outside linebacker Nik Bonitto with the final pick of the second round. Under-recruited out of Legend, Muma established himself as a defensive force in Laramie, where he earned first-team All-Mountain West Conference honors in 2020 and ’21. Last year, he was a finalist for the Butkus Award for college football’s best linebacker before going on to further boost his draft stock with impressive performances at the Senior Bowl and the combine.
A heady player who can wrap up ballcarriers in open space, Muma was Wyoming’s leading tackler in 2020 and then had 142 total tackles last season, the fourth-best single-season tally in Cowboys history. He also had two pick-sixes, and pairs his tackling ability and ball skills with the ability to make dynamic plays in open space.
