Boston College players Mark Herzlich, James McCluskey, Rich Lapham, Alex Albright, DeLeon Gause and Thomas Claiborne are all looking to hear their names called today.

Adjusted for Conference size...
And ACC still is dominating with 1.666667 players per team compared to the BE’s 0.625 player per team.

Linebackers
K.J. Wright (Mississippi State) and Sam Acho (Texas) off the board in Round Four …

Is Mark still in NYC?
"An offensive lineman from BC comes with a guaranteed pedigree stamp" - Wash. Post
Hmmm
No one seems to need linebackers at all!
Prediction
I’m now predicting: NY Giants with the 37th pick of the 6th round.
So Pissed the Bills Passed on Him
And took some schmo called Chris White.

Exactly
And the consensus seems to be that he is most likely a special teamer…there may be questions about Herzilch’s ability to find his pre-cancer form, but his upside is way higher than a g.d. special teamer.

Would rather see him...
on a winning team that doesn’t compete with the Patriots or Falcons.
Tyrod Taylor to Ravens
Seems like a good fit. Cool that he gets to play somewhat close to Blacksburg.
So glad to see him graduate.

Taylor
Yeah, he came a long way since Jamie Sylva picked his pocket!
Feels like he’s been at Tech since BC moved to the ACC.

It feels like every single OLB besides Herzy has been selected so far...
…really annoying. Some time out there is going to strike gold…hopefully.
ESPN Rating
ESPN has him as the second best available OLB right now…
Giants
New York has two compensatory picks coming up with 198 and 202 …
Draft #94!

Giants
SI has him listed as an ILB — does it matter? Yes I hope, with all their BC Connections the Giants will show the guts!
Herz now the best OLB remaining
"An offensive lineman from BC comes with a guaranteed pedigree stamp" - Wash. Post
Yeah, I’m questioning my Giants fandom at the moment as well.
BC Interruption, SBN's Boston College Eagles blog
WTF Bills!
We need an OLB and we freakin pass on him again!
"An offensive lineman from BC comes with a guaranteed pedigree stamp" - Wash. Post
At 216
And no Herzy im startin to get a little worried
HAND DOWN MAN DOWN- MARK JACKSON
One more than Shaq. You can take that to the bank- Kobe Bean Bryant
The only predicament is, deciding what to put on....The Big Boy. VAN GUNDY!!!! hahahaha

The NFL will look pretty stupid if they invited Herzlich to NY and he doesn’t get drafted. It’ll be like they’re just using his amazing story for their benefit. Oh wait…

Hey, Kansas City
Hope that running back from Yale that you took with the 223rd pick in the Draft works out for you!
Getting more bitter by the pick …

It's baffling
He has more upside than anyone in the 7th round. He has 1st round potential.

If Mark isn't picked
what’s the lockout situation going to do with UDFAs? Still believe he’ll be picked before it’s all said and done.
As long as there is a lockout, players can’t sign as UDFAs.
BC Interruption, SBN's Boston College Eagles blog
That's awful
But since there still is a lockout, what advantage do players that are picked have? They can’t use team facilities. Are they given access to playbooks?
No, can’t use facilities and can’t get playbooks. They can’t sign right away, but it’s not like the NFL lockout will last forever. They will get a chance to sign and get paid.
Unfortunately, UDFAs are among the biggest losers as a result of the NFL’s labor situation.
BC Interruption, SBN's Boston College Eagles blog
Damn
Well at least the drafted players won’t have too big an advantage then.
They have to wait
Terrible…hopefully he doesn’t have to worry about that

There may be a civil rights law violation here somewhere
This may be discrimination on the basis of a past medical illness. What do you think all you lawyers out there?
I hate the Philadelphia Eagles even more now
Take a LB not named Herzlich with the 237th pick.
Sure, take the kid from UConn. Don’t take the local kid with the amazing story …

… and a USC FB that rushed for 166 yards last year with 240.
BC Interruption, SBN's Boston College Eagles blog
He's the one that juked Kuechly
In the Emerald bowl

Apparently, the last 15 picks in the Draft will be used on USC players …
240 Stanley Havili, FB (USC)
241 David Ausberry, WR (USC)
242 Malcolm Smith, OLB (USC)
BC Interruption, SBN's Boston College Eagles blog
UGGGHHHHHH!
The Bills took a D3 DT!? Are you kidding me?
"An offensive lineman from BC comes with a guaranteed pedigree stamp" - Wash. Post
Clearly Discrimination
The NFL deserves not to have a season next year!
I kinda hope the NFL never comes back. I can’t believe they would invite him to NYC, cash in on his story, and then not one of 32 teams would take a chance on him … even late.
How often do these 6th and 7th round picks pan out? 1 in 5? 1 in 10?
BC Interruption, SBN's Boston College Eagles blog
NFL's Best. Weekend. Ever.
- Lock out the players a second time during the Draft
- One of a record 25 Radio City VIPs undrafted

NFL's top 100 players of 2011
BC’s on the top 10 list with 3. Who do we think the 3 are? Ryan, Raji, and Snee?
Well on the brightside
He can choose his NFL team but this is embarrasing
