SI's 2016 NFL Mock Draft 1.0 has two Hokies in the First Round

SI released a ridiculously too early 2016 Mock Draft. Still, these lists are fun to glance over and SI projects two Hokies to be selected in the first round.

7. Chargers - KENDALL FULLER, CB Junior, Virginia Tech

The brother of Chicago Bears CB Kyle Fuller, Kendall is "a little bigger, a little more physical" than the 2014 No. 14 pick, according to Virginia Tech defensive coordinator Bud Foster. Foster also told The Roanoke Times that Fuller is "a lot like Brandon Flowers." Given how Flowers has played for them, the Chargers would take that.

30. Packers - DADI NICOLAS, OLB RS Senior, Virginia Tech

Nine sacks and 17.5 tackles for loss last season for Nicolas, who is listed on Virginia Tech's website at 236 pounds. If he actually plays at or around that weight in 2015, the NFL buzz will follow. One of the obvious knocks on Nicolas's pro projections to this point has been that he plays too light—like Floyd, he has been closer to the 220 range.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"
