Two Rebels Selected On Day Two Of NFL Draft

A pair of former Ole Miss Rebels were selected in the 2010 National Football League Draft Friday, as RB-WR Dexter McCluster was the 36th overall pick by the Kansas City Chiefs in the second round and OL John Jerry was the 73rd pick by the Miami Dolphins in the third round.McCluster is the second Rebel drafted by the Chiefs in the past five years, as offensive guard Tre' Stallings was a seventh-round choice of KC in 2006.The last time an Ole Miss running back was taken so high was Deuce McAllister's selection with the 23rd overall pick of the 2001 draft. A Rebel wide receiver had never been chosen in the first or second rounds before."I'm glad to be a Kansas City Chief, and I'm glad to be back in red; Ole Miss red and now Kansas City Chief red," McCluster said. "Mini-camp starts Thursday, and the coaches said to be ready to work. You know I'll be ready."
