The 11th hour of the NFL Draft represented one of USF's finest hours in recent memory.
OLB Reshard Cliett (Texans) and three-year starting C Austin Reiter (Redskins) were taken in the sixth and seventh round, respectively, Saturday afternoon. Cliett was taken with the 211th overall pick, 11 spots ahead of Reiter.
The Bulls now have had at least one player drafted for three consecutive years, and eight of the last nine drafts.
Cliett (6-foot-2, 222 pounds), whose six sacks led the Bulls last season, helped thrust himself into NFL scouts' collective consciousness with a sparkling pro-day effort on USF's campus in late March.
