  Draft Scout by Conference









  Former Boise State left tackle Ezra Cleveland is heading to Minnesota. The Vikings picked Cleveland on Friday with the 26th pick in the second round of the NFL Draft - No. 58 overall. The Broncos have now had at least one player drafted 11 years in a row. Cornerback Kyle Wilson began the streak in 2010 when the Jets took him No. 29 overall. When Cleveland was shown on ESPN learning of his selection, there was a large Boise State flag draped across the wall behind him. The highest-drafted Boise State offensive lineman was Ryan Clady, who went No. 12 overall in 2008 to the Broncos. Cleveland is the third-highest, behind Clady and Daryn Colledge - two longtime NFL starters.

Clady started 106 NFL games from 2008 to 2016, and Collledge started 137 games from 2006 to 2014. Cleveland started 40 games for Boise State the past three seasons. A foot injury limited him early last season, but he managed to start 13 games at left tackle and earn first-team All-Mountain West honors for the second year in a row. "He's a tough guy and athletic," Vikings Director of College Scouting Jamaal Stephenson said, according to the Post Bulletin in Minnesota. "He's mature. He's a grinder. He loves football and we think he's a guy who's going to come in and help us right away." - Idaho Statesman
