The Houston Texans selected Washington State quarterback Alex Brink in the seventh round of the NFL draft on Sunday , making him the state’s only college player drafted. Washington State has had at least one player selected in each of the last 14 drafts.
Meanwhile, Idaho had three state players drafted. Boise State tackle Ryan Clady went 12th overall to Denver, becoming the first BSU player to be drafted in the first round. Boise State cornerback Orlando Scandrick was drafted in the fifth round by Dallas.
The last pick of the draft — known tongue-in-cheek as the league’s “Mr. Irrelevant” — was Idaho linebacker David Vobora, whom St. Louis selected 252nd overall.
After the draft, the Seattle Seahawks agreed to free-agent terms Sunday evening with former Cougars wide receiver Michael Bumpus.
