" It marks the first time in NFL Draft history that two running backs from the same school have been taken in the top five overall and just the fourth time that two backs from the same college have been selected in the first round. The last time Auburn had two players selected in the first round was Takeo Spikes (13th, Cincinnati) and Victor Riley (27th, Kansas City) in 1998.
