Golden Bears Have Had At Least One Player Drafted In 30 Of Last 31 Years NFL Draft Thursday-Saturday
ARLINGTON, Tex. – The 2018 NFL Draft is scheduled to take place at AT&T Stadium this Thursday-Saturday, April 26- 28. Thursday’s first round is slated to begin at 7 pm CT/5 pm PT, while Friday’s second day featuring the second and third rounds stars at 6 pm ET/4 pm PT. Rounds four through seven get underway Saturday at 11 am CT/9 am PT. The 2018 NFL Draft will be televised live by NFL Network, FOX and ESPN. Visit NFL.com/network/draft for additional information on coverage of the draft. Defensive end James Looney had a strong showing at the 2018 NFL Combine in March as the lone defensive lineman at the event to rank in the top 10 among the 40 participants in his position group in each of the six measurable skills tests he competed in at Lucas Oil Stadium. Looney also participated in Cal’s Pro Day last month along with fellow draft-eligible players who completed their collegiate eligibility at Cal in 2017 including cornerback Darius Allensworth, safety Jacob Anderson, placekicker Matt Anderson, linebacker Raymond Davison III, linebacker Devante Downs, running back Vic Enwere, cornerback Marloshawn Franklin Jr. and wide receiver Jordan Veasy. Extensive coverage of all former Cal football players selected in the 2018 NFL Draft and players that sign undrafted free agent contracts following the draft will be provided via the Cal Athletics social media outlets listed below and online at CalBears.com.

Cal Football NFL Draft Notes
• Cal has had 235 players selected in the NFL Draft since the event began in 1936 including 27 first-round selections and two overall No. 1 picks in quarterbacks Jared Goff (Los Angeles Rams, 2016) and Steve Bartkowski (Atlanta Falcons, 1975). • Cal has had at least one player selected in the NFL Draft for 30 of the last 31 years with at least one in the top three rounds for 10 of the last 11. Cal had at least one player selected in the NFL Draft for 28 consecutive years (1987-2014), one in the top three rounds for eight (2007-14) and two in the first four rounds for five (2010-14) before those streaks were all snapped when no Cal player was taken in the 2015 NFL Draft. • Cal’s six quarterbacks taken in the first round of the NFL Draft is tied for the third-most by any college football program behind only Notre Dame (9) and USC (8) while equaling Stanford (6). Cal’s list includes Craig Morton (1965 – No. 6, Dallas Cowboys), Bartkowski, Rich Campbell (1981 – No. 6, Green Bay Packers), Kyle Boller (2003 – No. 19, Baltimore Ravens), Aaron Rodgers (2005 – No. 24, Green Bay Packers) and Goff. • Prior to Jared Goff’s 2016 selection the most recent first-round NFL Draft pick from Cal was defensive end Cameron Jordan when he was taken in the first round with No. 24 overall selection by the New Orleans Saints. • Goff and Jordan are among five first-round NFL Draft picks from Cal currently active in the league with the others Aaron Rodgers (2005 – No. 24, Green Bay Packers), Alex Mack (2009 – No. 21, Cleveland Browns) and Tyson Alualu (2010 – No. 10, Jacksonville Jaguars). Mack (Atlanta Falcons) and Alualu (Pittsburgh Steelers) are currently on teams that they were not drafted by.
• Cal had three players selected in the most recent NFL Draft in 2017 in quarterback Davis Webb (New York Giants, third round, No. 87 overall), wide receiver Chad Hansen (New York Jets, fourth round, No. 141 overall) and running back Khalfani Muhammad (Tennessee Titans, seventh round, No. 241 overall). • The most Cal players selected in a single NFL Draft were the 10 chosen in 1952, while Cal's six players picked in the 1977, 2008 and 2012 drafts are tied for the second-most in school history.
