We expected both Daelin Hayes and Ade Ogundeji to be selected in the 2021 NFL Draft, and the Notre Dame Football stars were picked 11 spots apart.

The Notre Dame Football program is having another huge day, as the 2021 NFL Draft continues with rounds four through seven on Saturday afternoon. The Irish saw star quarterback Ian Book be the first signal-caller off the board on Saturday, going in the fourth round to the New Orleans Saints, and a former teammate may be chasing after him before all is said and done.
