A dream came true on Friday night. That’s when former Iowa State offensive lineman Kelechi Osemele was selected by the Baltimore Ravens with the 60th pick (2nd round) of the 2012 NFL Draft.
Osemele started his last 44 straight games in a Cyclone uniform. Osemele earned All-Big 12 honors three times during his Iowa State career.
Per an Iowa State press release, "Osemele was Iowa State’s first second round pick since Keith Sims in 1990. Sims was the 39th player chosen overall. The 6-6, 333-pound Osemele was a consensus first-team All-Big 12 honoree by the league’s writers and coaches in 2011."
