The Pittsburgh Steelers have made Kentucky’s Bud Dupree the 22nd Pick of the NFL Draft

I am a Bengals fan and I was hoping they would pick Bud, but the team I hate the most picked him instead.

Dupree’s 4.56 Bsecond 40 yard dash time and 42 inch vertical jump wowed everyone at the NFL Draft combine and was a big reason for his selection in the 1st round.

Bud is the highest Kentucky Football player to be drafted since Dewayne Robertson went #4 in 2003.

Kentucky has now had 15 football players drafted since 2005.

Other Wildcats that could be drafted

Defensive end Za’Darius Smith has been projected in Round 3 or 4.
