Once overlooked as an undersized cornerback, Rakestraw Jr. is now expected to be off the draft board by Day 2.

Missouri's Ennis Rakestraw Jr., left, and Jayden Jernigan celebrate a defensive stop against Vanderbilt in the first half of an NCAA college football game Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, in Nashville, Tenn.

In four seasons at Missouri, Rakestraw overcame a torn ACL and a groin injury to emerge as a talented player sought by NFL teams. Last season, he recorded four pass breakups and 35 tackles while covering some of the top receivers in the SEC, such as LSU’s Brian Thomas and Georgia’s Ladd McConkey. In the previous season, he rebounded from the knee injury with 12 pass breakups and one interception.

Duncanville coach Reginald Samples said the game against Smith-Njigba, an Ohio State signee and future first-round pick, put Rakestraw “on the map.”
