In under two hours on Thursday night in front of over 150,000 fans in the streets of downtown Nashville, fans of FSU football got to join the party at the annual NFL Draft when the name of Brian Burns – arguably one of the best recruits to play for the Seminoles – was picked No. 16 overall by the Carolina Panthers.
After that, those who are fans of the Noles waited…and waited…and waited all the way into Saturday in the early evening, with the Seattle Seahawks coming in at the end of the sixth round and picking defensive tackle Demarcus Christmas just under 195 picks later.
