The Rams took Michigan RB Blake Corum with the No. 83 pick in the NFL Draft. He had a whopping 27 TDs in his Senior season.
Tee Higgins has formerly requested a trade, and now the writing looks to be on the wall.
The Bengals scooped up WR Jermaine Burton from Alabama, who led the team with 798 receiving yards and 8 receiving TDs.
Barstool Sports Founder Dave Portnoy posted a funny clip on X of Cowboy fans that turned up in Detroit to party.
He commented on the fans dancing, shaking and playing air guitar, describing them as a 'different breed' of fan.
Day 2 NFL Draft fans are just a different breed. Just moving and grooving to guys they got no clue who they are acting like they just locked up the Super Bowl. pic.twitter.com/7i0wHPJobL

Is that a bird or a plane? No, it's newly drafted Giants CB jumping over a car.
Recent Kentucky commit Andru Phillips can jump over a car.

You cannot. pic.twitter.com/LHTa9Bi5Pf
In an old clip posted to X, Andru can be seen showing off some insane hops by jumping over what appears to be a Nissan Altima.
The Giants are stocking up for their secondary. They took Kentucky CB Andru Philips, who started 12 games (47 tackles, 1.5 TFL, 5 PBUs).
Sometimes he has lots to say -- other times he's vague.
The Jets QB weighed in on the trade up to select WR Malachi Corley by posting a set of eyeball emojis to X.
In Rodgers words, this looks to be a stamp of apporval.
Gang green is getting it done. The Jets traded up to select WR Malachi Corley from Western Kentucky. He led the team with 79 receptions, 894 receiving yards and has physicality that could translate to red-zone targets from Aaron Rodgers.
He's raw but he could thrive in Andy Reid's system. Kingsley Suamataia started 11 games at LT and his frame and athleticism could turn him into an eventual starter.
A physical corner lacking productivity (one INT). Rakestraw’s 4.51 40-yard dash doesn’t measure with the elite corners, but his all-around edge is what makes him worthy of a Day Two selection.
