In the third round of the 1967 NFL Draft, the New Orleans Saints went out and picked former FSU football star Del Williams to become the newest member of the fun and games in the Big Easy – a start that got battled in the 17th round when the Miami Dolphins went out and selected Larry Kissam the same season.
Since that point, hundreds of the top players from across the game have heard their names called during what is now a three day, seven round event – anxiously awaiting the moment where they can kick their owners out of the house and prove they can compete with the top NFL talent.
