Johnny Newton's NFL Draft moment had been a long time coming, even if it took an extra day. On workouts by a mechanic shop with his family, turning into an All-American for the #illini and grilling out on draft day. 247sports.com/college/illino…
Need a Javon Bullard jersey ASAP.

Johnny Newton describing his time at #illini: “Fun as fuck. I feel like life at Illinois is bigger than football. I met great people, lifelong friends, great coaching staff. …Relationships that I’ll have for a lifetime... A memorable time that I’ll never forget."
Not now Abigail. It's a busy night.
So to recap the day: Johnny Newton and Quan Martin are former #illini teammates in Washington (and Nick Allegretti, who didn't play on the same team as Newton). Tip Reiman and Isaiah Adams drafted by the Arizona Cardinals 11 picks apart.
That dog just went for an emotional ride. Awesome moment for Tip Reiman.

@mrwagner25 My wife and I try to fly out of Indy exclusively as we have always had such a positive experience. O’Hare is such a nightmare.
Top Tier airport. So easy to get in and out ✈️
As it turns out I've been sleeping on the Indianapolis airport for years.
@mrwagner25 Shorter drive. Easier parking. Less traffic/people. I prefer Indy.
@mrwagner25 Easy to use..,great parking…user friendly. The drive is more than worth it. When I fly to Florida it’s out of there…
