The 2016 NFL Draft takes place this week, starting Thursday and ending on Saturday. Maryland has a few players who will surely be drafted, plus a couple others who could sneak into the late rounds or will at least be fighting for roster spots in training camp. We'll break down all of them.
It's been five years since the Maryland football program last produced a second-round (or better) NFL draft pick. The Baltimore Ravens took receiver Torrey Smith in 2011 with the 58th overall pick, setting Smith on a course to eventually become a Super Bowl champion and cash out in free agency with the San Francisco 49ers.
