Legendary Football Superstar

The first round of the draft wrapped up, and man, the 26th pick was a total shocker.

So, the Baltimore Ravens were supposed to make their pick, right? But they totally blew it and ran out of time, just like the Minnesota Vikings did years ago. This let the Kansas City Chiefs, who were supposed to pick 27th, jump in and make their pick first. When the news hit that the Ravens missed their slot, the whole studio went nuts, and you could hear gasps all over the country. Ravens fans? They were losing it, crying their eyes out.

In the end, the Chiefs snagged wide receiver Johnathan Baldwin, and the Ravens went with cornerback Jimmy Smith.

Other than that, the first round was pretty chill. No mention of Luke, Logan, or any of their buddies.

For Logan, no tight ends getting picked in the first round was awesome news. It meant he had a solid shot at getting picked in the second or third round. But for Luke, the quarterback situation was way more up in the air.

Like everyone thought, this year was all about the quarterbacks. Tons of teams needed one bad. Four quarterbacks got picked in the first round alone: the Carolina Panthers with the first overall pick, then the Tennessee Titans, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Minnesota Vikings.

This means the QB competition is only gonna get crazier, and teams needing a quarterback are gonna be super careful.

Oh, and Richard Sherman, that cocky dude from rookie camp who always butted heads with Luke, didn't get picked in the first round either. Three cornerbacks got picked, but he wasn't one of them.

The draft goes on for three days: first day is the first round, second day is the second and third rounds, and the third day is for the last four rounds. Interest drops off big time after the first day.

For most people, the first round is the only thing worth talking about. Even hardcore fans might not watch the whole thing live, just waiting for their team's full draft results. But for teams, scouts, and the players, the first round is just a show. The real deal is in the later rounds, where their futures get decided.

On the second day, Luke's family headed over to Logan's place to watch the second and third rounds.noveldrama

Not even half an hour in, and Logan's house was already full of groans and complaints. First, the Cincinnati Bengals picked quarterback Andy Dalton with the 35th pick in the second round, then the San Francisco 49ers picked quarterback Colin Kaepernick with the 36th pick.

"You've gotta be kidding me! You've gotta be fucking kidding me!" Logan was the first to lose it, yelling at the TV like he could argue with the people on the other side.

Then Austin jumped in, "What is Trent Baalke thinking? Colin? He actually picked Colin? Jesus Christ! We need a real quarterback. Passing up on someone as awesome as Luke and picking a running QB instead? Might as well pick a running back!" Even Julia started muttering, "Are you kidding me? One Cam is enough, and now there's another Colin? What's wrong with this league? Have these coaches lost their minds, turning the NFL into the NCAA? Damn Jim Harbaugh! He spent four years at Stanford and trained Andrew Luck, and now he picks Colin! Jesus Christ! This is infuriating!"

Jim Harbaugh, the new head coach of the 49ers, was the coach at Stanford before this season. Andrew Luck was his star, a classic pocket QB with some running skills, but nowhere near Aaron Rodgers, let alone Cam Newton.

Colin Kaepernick was the QB for the University of Nevada, a running QB: in his senior year, he had 21 passing touchdowns and 20 rushing touchdowns.

The kicker? The 49ers traded up nine spots with the Denver Broncos to get Kaepernick. This move showed that after the Bengals picked Dalton, the 49ers felt the heat and acted fast, meaning Colin was their guy from the start. That was the real shocker. Two QBs picked back-to-back, and one by the 49ers. But still, no mention of Luke. This pretty much killed any chance of Luke playing for the 49ers. No team's gonna waste two picks on quarterbacks in a seven-round draft. That's just dumb.

Everyone was losing it, even Jack and Annie looked bummed out. But Luke? He was the chillest dude in the room, watching everyone freak out with this weird sense of humor. He even started laughing.

Seeing Luke all carefree, Logan chucked a pillow at him, "You can still laugh?"

"What else should I do? Cry?" Luke shot back, making everyone pause. Then they realized he had a point and burst out laughing.

But then, some good news finally hit in the second round. After trading with the 49ers, the Denver Broncos, picking at 45th, grabbed safety Rahim Moore from UCLA. Then they traded again with the Miami Dolphins and picked offensive tackle Orlando Franklin at 46th.

Rahim Moore was the first UCLA player to get picked this year, breaking the ice. Luke and Logan jumped up, high-fiving each other, genuinely stoked for their teammate. But this was just the warm-up for the real party.

At the 80th pick in the third round, the 49ers traded up again, making a deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars. They picked tight end Logan Newman from UCLA! He was the fourth tight end picked this year.

The room went nuts. Logan threw his hands up, screaming and running around like a madman. No one could catch him. After three laps, he stopped by the TV, clenched his fists, and cheered. Every muscle in his body was celebrating.

Everyone else jumped up too. Luke was even more hyped than if he'd been picked himself, pumping his fists, "This is what I'm talking about! This is what I'm talking about!" The noise was so loud, the whole house shook.

Ecstatic doesn't even cover it. Not only was Logan picked, but he was picked early in the third round by his dream team, the 49ers!

and turn. The next chapter awaits, exclusively on our site. Dive in now! Back in rookie camp, Logan's interview with the 49ers didn't go well, and he was bummed for ages, thinking he'd blown his shot. But today, the 49ers traded up to grab him. It was a dream come true.

Logan was living his dream, and Austin was over the moon too. Everyone was pumped! After Logan finished his victory lap, he still had energy to burn. He sprinted and tackled Luke, hanging onto him like a koala, "Bambi! I did it, I did it! I'm a 49er! 49er!" The term "49ers" comes from the gold rush days in 1849 when people flocked to Northern California to strike it rich. When San Francisco got its football team, they named it the "49ers" to honor that history.

Now, every player and fan of San Francisco football proudly calls themselves "49ers." Logan still wasn't done celebrating. He ran outside and shouted, "I'm a 49er!" The neighbors started cheering, "Congrats!", "Way to go!", "Go, Logan, go!"

The whole street turned into a party, with everyone celebrating like crazy.

Finally, the celebration wound down, and Logan ran back, pounding Luke's chest, "Buddy, you can make it to the league! Trust me, if I can do it, you definitely can! When we meet on the field, I won't hold back."

That confident declaration made Luke laugh.

But while dreams are sweet, reality bites. The third round ended without Luke getting picked. The fourth and fifth rounds on the third day also passed without his name

being called. In the sixth round, running back Marcus Lynch was picked by the 49ers, and defensive tackle David Carter went to the Arizona Cardinals.

Only the seventh round was left.
