Also in that draft, Tyvon Branch, Arman Shields and Trevor Scott were introduced to the Silver and Black.
Oh.. and Chaz Schilens too.
Chaz Schilens was an interesting pick in the 7th Round as his draft combine information is impressive, very impressive at that.

Chaz Schilens stands an imposing 6'4" and weighs roughly 225 pounds these days. He ran his 40 in 4.38 seconds and had 43'' vertical leap.
