Tech DT Milton Williams goes to the Eagles at pick 73. Is that the first CUSA player picked this year? I don't recall seeing any others yet.

Congratulations. LA Tech has a long history of developing players into quality NFL players. I wish more of us could do as good of a job as LT.

The Eagles now have a LA Tech Bulldog on offense and one on defense. Congrats Milton.

And Tech!

As a Bucs fan, I am so excited for Darden to be drafted by Tampa Bay. I don't think I saw a single mock that had them taking him.

Looks like CUSA finished with 5.

So we're just going to let this go and act like no one is aware of the viral Eagle war room segment when Milton Williams was drafted?

This is just the article, but there is a 18-second video clip of it where you can clearly see absolute disappointment, and disgust over the Eagles GM getting cute and trading back, preventing them from getting a player they really wanted, the cornerback from UCF.

Haven’t heard about it. Haven’t seen it. Don’t care about it. Nobody forces teams to trade back. The Saints haven’t traded back in any round since 2006. They’ve traded up 21 times.

NFL Draft: Cowboys Pick OT Josh Ball, who was accused of dating violence and suspended from Florida State

Rileylives, Not so fast my friend. Looks like the Marshall draft pick has some drama surrounding him.

The thing that happened to Milton Williams was unfortunate. I was actually thinking last night, if that were me I would be angry to prove the organization wrong. Even if you get drafted by that team, it just shows that not everybody will be on board with you. It's just weird man. Plus the eagles suck so they deserve that little bit of shame.

LOL. Newsflash- Every draft room has drama, just like their fan base does. Some people wanted this guy, others wanted that one, someone else wanted another. Donahue didn't get the guy he wanted. Booohooo. Williams is still going to show up, do his job, and get paid very very well. Everyone will say Williams was "their guy all along" come football season, just like KC did with L'Jarius Sneed. No biggie.

Looks like Milton was impressive in his NLF debut last night.

Milton Williams shows why he's been so hyped
