The 2011 NFL Draft is almost upon us and there will be several Hawkeyes who will be waiting to hear their name called this weekend. In last year's draft, Iowa had 6 players selected and had 1 more player sign as a free agent. The 6 Iowa players drafted last year were the most Hawkeyes taken in an NFL draft under Coach Ferentz.
With 9 Hawkeyes participating in the NFL Combine just a few months ago, the Hawks look to compete with that draft number from last year. Here at Iowa Football, we put together a little pre-draft video and we want to wish all the former Hawkeyes good luck this weekend. Hawkeye nation will be watching and following the draft all weekend long.
