Thursday night, and there were a number of
winners and losers. Winner: SEC
The Southeastern Conference set a new record
with 15 players selected in the first round. Winner: Tom Brady
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers traded up to select Iowa OT Tristan Wirfs to help protect their new quarterback. Winner: LSU
LSU had five players selected in the first round, including No. 1 overall pick Joe Burrow to the Bengals. Winner: Tua Tagovailoa
Despite speculation about his hip injury, the
Alabama QB was drafted No. 5 by the Miami Dolphins. Winner: Ohio State
The first three selections, Burrow, DE Chase Young and
CB Jeff Okudah, were all former Buckeyes. Loser: Aaron Rodgers
Green Bay traded up to draft Utah State QB Jordan
Love at No. 26 as the heir apparent to Rodgers. Loser: Roger Goodell
The NFL commissioner badly mispronounced
Tua Tagovailoa's last name, and he had virtual boos pumped in
from the broadcast in his basement.
