NFL Draft: Tar Heel Recap

As expected, UNC had a pretty decent showing in this weekend’s NFL Draft, ending up with 5 players selected to tie Clemson for second-most draftees in the ACC (Pittsburgh had 6), and tied with the most draftees in the conference through Day 2 (three). The five Heels drafted were the only players from last year’s team who had entered their name into the draft, so we don’t have to lament any of our guys being passed on or overlooked, or be stuck with the hope that they get enough opportunity to show out with the limited looks an undrafted free agent might get.
