So who will hear his name called first in the NFL draft, a player from USC or UCLA? In three of the last four drafts, though, a UCLA player was taken before his USC counterpart. But McKinley, who’s coming off shoulder surgery and has had multiple concussions, isn’t a shoo-in to be the first local prospect selected. For UCLA, there’s cornerback Fabian Moreau, who suffered a torn chest muscle while bench pressing for scouts at Bruins pro day. While there’s a chance they could be selected earlier, USC tackles Zach Banner and Chad Wheeler, and guard Damien Mama, are likely third-day picks, as is UCLA tackle Conor McDermott.
