No BYU players were drafted Saturday, but DE Corbin Kaufusi, QB Tanner Mangum receive opportunities as undrafted free agents in the NFL

Rounds 4-7 of the NFL draft came and went Saturday with no BYU football players hearing their names called after linebacker Sione Takitaki was selected in the third round Friday by the Cleveland Browns.

Defensive end Corbin Kaufusi signed a free-agent deal with the New Orleans Saints, while quarterback Tanner Mangum accepted mini-camp invitations from the Oakland Raiders and Detroit Lions.

“I am grateful for all that Corbin and Tanner have done for BYU, and I am excited they both have the opportunity to pursue playing in the NFL,” said BYU coach Kalani Sitake in a school news release.
