Day 2

LB Myles Jack, 36th (Round 2), Tampa Bay Buccaneers

So what happens now? Myles Jack slipped out of the first round and planned on not attending Day 2. Instead, he dunks a basketball to prove that his knee is fine, because why would you not?

More from Go Joe Bruin

In addition to this slamming piece of information came word from Jack’s doctor stating that he would not need microfracture surgery. Now maybe it’s just me, but the video and the doctor’s statement could have helped Jack before the draft started, not after Round 1 when millions of dollars could have been made.

We saw how quickly things turned south for Ole Miss OL Laremy Tunsil after his Twitter and Instagram were alledgedly hacked. This not only moved him down the board, but now Ole Miss is being investigated for improper benefits. Back to Jack…

Myles finally heard his named called as the 36th player in the NFL Draft as the Jacksonville Jaguars said, “That’s our guy!”

Jack was now in the League and all is right in the world.

Next: NFL Draft Day 3
