The Purdue Boilermakers got on the board during the NFL Draft on Saturday.

Defensive end Ryan Russell was the 27th pick of the 5th round by the Dallas Cowboys. Russell is thought to have a lot of potential since he looks the part of a big time defensive end. His production wasn't ideal with just 8.5 sacks in his career but if the Cowboys can get him to turn the corner, they will have a steal.
