It has been a massive 3 days for a number of Australians who were waiting to see if their name would be called and for those who did not hear name, would they get a shot in the NFL as an undrafted free agent.
The Draft is now over and we had two Australians drafted, in the second round Adam Gotsis was taken by the Denver Broncos and in the seventh round Lachlan Edwards was taken by the New York Jets.
