according to the list released by the NFL on Thursday. They are defensive end Malik Carney and offensive lineman William Sweet of the Tar Heels; and wide receiver Greg Dortch and offensive lineman Phil Haynes of the Deacons.

 Rounding out the list of state talent at the annual skills evaluation camp, are Appalachian State running back Jalin Moore, NC A&T defensive end Darryl Johnson, Charlotte offensive lineman Nate Davis and Elon offensive lineman Oli Udoh.
