There are probably few moments like seeing that your phone is ringing and realizing that you’re about to become a first-round pick.
Thirty two players experienced that on Thursday night, 3 of which were former Georgia stars. Both Isaiah Wynn and Sony Michel got that call from the same number.
New England doubled down on Dawgs in the first round by taking Wynn at No. 23 and Michel at No. 31. The Patriots shared a peak inside the warm room to show what that call looked like from their vantage point.
Here’s a video of Bill Belichick and Patriots owner Robert Kraft calling the former Georgia stars (via the Patriots Twitter account):

“Got a couple Bulldogs up here with David Andrews,” Belichick told Michel. Kraft told Michel that after seeing how productive he was in the postseason “it was a dream come true” to land the former Georgia tailback.
Perhaps Michel and Wynn will be key cogs in a few more memorable postseasons in New England.
