Rolland-Jones gets overlooked in draft

Fourth round. Fifth round. Sixth.

The former Arkansas State University defensive end was told by his agent and NFL representatives that he would most likely be picked between the fourth and seventh rounds.

The Rolland-Jones family had thrown a party in its home in Mesquite, Texas, 30 miles away from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, where the draft was held.

Rolland-Jones held tight to his phone as other pass rushers' names were selected in the seventh round.

No. 230: Leon Jacobs, Wisconsin's All-Big Ten honorable mention outside linebacker.
