Day one is done and center Ryan Cook, who was the drafted No. 51 overall and 19th in the second round by Minnesota, was the only Lobo picked in the first three rounds.
It isn't especially surprising. Hank Baskett and DonTrell Moore were expected to go somewhere between the third and seventh rounds.
The only other Mountain West Conference player picked on day one was San Diego State's inside linebacker Freddie Keiaho, a guy who was everywhere when the Aztecs played the Lobos. Indianapolis picked him with the 30th selection of the third round and 94th spot overall in the draft.
Here is an interesting story I stumbled across on the Deadspin sports blog, pointing out how unpredictable the draft is and calling all the mock drafts are meaningless. Interesting stuff.
Check back for more marathon draft coverage tomorrow.
I'm off to enjoy my oh-so-brief break from Chris Berman.
