The supplemental draft is a yearly event that can mean absolutely nothing or impact the NFL greatly. When players like Josh Gordon or Terrelle Pryor enter the alternative college draft, NFL franchises get into wars for the players, but those athletes are anomalies.
Since 2007, over the course of nine draft classes, there have only been eight draft selections through the supplemental draft, and five of them have been worth Day 3 selections, with Gordon, Pryor and Jeremy Jarmon—who made 11 tackles in his NFL career—being the Day 2-worthy choices.
By all accounts, this year's star of the class is defensive tackle Ra'Zahn Howard of Purdue, but what does that even mean?
