Draft History of Pick No. 28
Here are the last 10 players chosen at pick No. 28 in the NFL Draft, and how their careers turned out.
2019, Los Angeles Chargers – DT Jerry Tillery, Notre Dame
Tiller started three games as a rookie and notched 17 tackles and two sacks – a promising start.
2018, Pittsburgh Steelers – S Terrell Edmunds, Virginia Tech
The strong safety has been a full-time starter in both of his first two years. He finished second on the team with 105 tackles last season.
2017, Dallas Cowboys – DE Taco Charlton, Michigan
Charlton never got his footing in Dallas, and they ended up releasing him early last season. He was picked up by the Miami Dolphins and posted five sacks in 10 games played.
2016, San Francisco 49ers – G Joshua Garnett, Stanford
Garnett started 11 games as a rookie, but suffered a knee injury and lost his starting job. The 49ers didn't pick up his option and he signed a one-year deal with the Lions this offseason.
2015, Detroit Lions – G Laken Tomlinson, Duke
Tomlinson became an immediate starter, but the Lions still traded him after just two seasons for a fifth-round pick. He's been a three-year starter in San Francisco since.
2014, Carolina Panthers – WR Kelvin Benjamin, Florida State
The 6-foot-5 monster's career started with a bang when he became a starter and topped 1,000 yards and scored nine touchdowns as a rookie, but was traded to the Buffalo Bills, had weight issues and was out of the NFL last season.
2013, Denver Broncos – DT Sylvester Williams, North Carolina
Williams became a starter in Denver, but didn't stick. He has bounced between five different teams over the past four seasons.
2012, Green Bay Packers – LB Nick Perry, USC
Perry has been a hit in Green Bay, where he has notched 32 sacks in seven seasons, including 11 in 2016.
2011, New Orleans Saints – RB Mark Ingram Jr., Alabama
Ingram has been the best pick at No. 28 in recent history. The three-time Pro Bowler is still one of the NFL's top all-around backs and an instrumental part of Baltimore's record-setting offense last season.
2010, Miami Dolphins – DT Jared Odrick, Penn State
Odrick didn't become a full-time starter with the Dolphins until his fifth season, but had steady production and two more good years in Jacksonville. He was out of the league after seven seasons and 23 career sacks.
