  Draft Scout by Conference









  Jason Huntley became the 30th New Mexico State football player to be drafted on Saturday. Huntley was selected by the Detroit Lions with the 27th pick in the fifth round (No. 172 overall). Huntley is the first NM State football player to be selected in the NFL Draft since wide receiver Jaleel Scott was picked by the Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round in 2017. "I'm thrilled for him and his family," Aggies head coach Doug Martin said. "(Huntley) sat behind Larry Rose III and never complained and just worked harder and learned and took reps and opportunity when he got them. He's a competitor when a lot of players will jump into the transfer portal when things don't go well and that's where he is where he is at today."

Prior to the Draft, Huntley talked about his versatility serving as his greatest strength. "He was very durable for his size and he went from 150 pounds when he got here and 190 pounds when he left so that tells you about his work ethic," Martin said. "He was unselfish and played two positions because that is what was best for the team and ultimately that is what helped him. He led us in tackles on the punt team. He was our right end. Stuff like that is what scouts see and focus on that a lot of fans don't see." - Las Cruces Sun News
