A surprise to many, Louisiana Monroe defensive back Trey Caldwell was selected by the Cleveland Browns with the #173 overall pick.
A Lousiana Monroe Warhawks player was selected in the fifth round of the NFL Draft. Instead of the more common choice, defensive back Trey Caldwell was chosen by the Cleveland Browns with the #173 pick.
Caldwell was a solid player for the Warhawks during his college career, but very few services had him as a possible draft pick. Even the NFL's own website had little more than one sentence on Caldwell.
One thing that impressed scouts was Caldwell during ULM's pro day, a day that he showed his athleticism in impressive fashion.
