ARLINGTON, Texas -- For the second year in a row, a North Carolina A&T football player is heading to the NFL.
The Oakland Raiders traded up to the third round to take A&T offensive tackle Brandon Parker off the board with the 65th overall pick.
Parker was the MEAC's Offensive Lineman of the Year and a first-team all-conference member in three years in a row. He also earned AP FCS first-team All-American honors as a senior.
The Kannapolis native was a key part of an A&T team that won its second HBCU National Championship in three seasons and became the first MEAC school to ever finish a season undefeated.
