In a April 23, 2012 story about the longtime friendship between University of Arkansas wide receivers Jarius Wright and Greg Childs, CoxSports TV reporter Mike Neighbors asked Wright, "How great would it be if you guys ended up on the same team together after all you've been through together?"
Both receivers were in fact drafted by the Vikings within 16 picks of one another in the fourth round.
You have to wonder if Spielman did that on purpose or if the board naturally fell that way. Hate to think he felt it necessary to draft the one just because he took the other. There's enough things to consider in evaluating a draft prospect without also having to worry about their ability to find a roomate.
