NC State shut out of NFL Draft for the first time since 1996

It's been obvious for a while that NC State wasn't going to have a big 2015 NFL Draft--the school had only two players invited to the Combine, and one of those was a punter. Turns out it was a really quiet weekend, as no NC State players were selected. It's the first time since 1996 that's happened, per the N&O's Luke DeCock.

Offensive tackle Rob Crisp was probably State's best shot at a draftee, but no one opted to take a late flier on him. Which is not so bad--often it's better to go undrafted and hit the free agent pool rather than get snagged in the last round.
