Not every great player hears their name called on draft day. The Dallas Cowboys beloved wide receiver Drew Pearson reminded us all of that fact when he trolled the Philadelphia fans while announcing the second round pick for Dallas. Pearson went undrafted back when the draft consisted of 17 rounds and went on to have a remarkable career.
With the draft lasting just seven rounds now, it’s much easier to find contributors today after all the selections are made. The Atlanta Falcons are hoping they have done just that with their most recent crop of undrafted free agents, which includes a pass rushing specialist from the SEC in South Carolina’s Darius English.
