Round 1 Pick 3 (3rd overall) - Gabe Shaver - RDE - Virginia Tech

After looking at the draft class, we decided that our main priority would be to rebuild our defensive line. We had hoped to trade up to #1 to draft Texas State DE Bradley Caldwell but South Maryland did not return our e-mails and they ended up selecting him first overall. We felt that there was a strong chance that Yuma would draft Shaver with the 4th pick if he was still available so we drafted him with our first of two early first round picks.
