-Wisconsin Linebacker T.J. Watt was the first player off the board from the Badgers, as he was drafted to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

-Wisconsin Offensive Lineman Ryan Ramczyk was taken just two picks later by the New Orleans Saints. Ramczyk, a transfer from UW-Stevens Point, is expected to add depth to a solid Saints offensive line. Ramczyk is a Stevens Point, Wisconsin native.
