As the final draft picks approached, it became painfully obvious that no Aztecs would hear their name called. In fact, it was a very light year for the entire Mountain West in the draft world. Only five ‘players' names were called: Fresno State quarterback Jake Haener to Seattle, and San Jose State Defensive end Viliami Fehoko to Dallas were taken in the fourth round. The sixth round picks belonged to Boise States safety JL Skinner to Denver and defensive tackle Scott Matlock to the Chargers. Finally, New Mexico’s safety Jericho Reed was selected by Seattle.
The selection of NFL caliber players was off this year in the conference so the opportunity exists in UFA land.
