For the 23rd consecutive year, best in the Big 12 Conference and a longer streak than such schools as Alabama and Ohio State, Kansas State is on the NFL draft board. With the 25th pick in the second round, 56th overall, the Chicago Bears selected Wildcat offensive lineman Cody Whitehair. Whitehair becomes the thirteenth Wildcat ever taken in the second round, joining Corky Taylor (taken in 1955, the only Wildcat second-rounder not recruited and coached by Bill Snyder), Thomas Pandolph, Barrett Brooks, Kevin Lockett, Todd Weiner, Darren Howard, Quincy Morgan, Jon McGraw, Terry Pierce, Jordy Nelson, Daniel Thomas, and Arthur Brown.
