[autotag]Isaiah Foskey[/autotag] was a consensus All-American defensive lineman during his final season at Notre Dame. If there weren’t only 31 spots in the first round of the NFL draft, people might have said he was robbed of being taken in that round. Still, the second round practically was a sure thing, which is not a bad consolation prize. Sure enough, Foskey was drafted by the New Orleans Saints with the 40th overall pick.
Foskey joins a Saints defensive line that includes veteran defensive end Cameron Jordan. The Saints clearly are looking to get younger on that unit as their first-round pick was Clemson defensive tackle Bryan Bresee. They also are trying to make up for the loss of David Onyemata, who departed via free agency.
As is the case with any NFL draftee, Twitter was abuzz upon Foskey’s selection. Take a look at some of the most notable reactions on the social media site:
