Not a lot of people expected Sean Clifford to go in the fifth round of the NFL Draft, and some didn’t expect him to be selected at all.
But it happened.
The Green Bay Packers took “The Big Red Dog” with the 149th overall pick.
Here’s how Twitter reacted.
What a moment. 💙🥹 @seancliff14 pic.twitter.com/J0WIQO4BVe

Seems like a good time to relive Sean Clifford's 5️⃣ favorite @PennStateFball plays.
The @Packers 5th-round pick ranked them, 5-1, below. #GoPackGo#NFLDraft x @seancliff14 pic.twitter.com/B4Pw7evNHW

Can't get over the Clifford pick lol
Consensus board of over 70 evaluators had him 414th! PFF and CBS did not have him on their boards. Brugler had him 20 of 22 QBs. 5 guys AHEAD of him had undraftable grades. @LanceZierlein grades like 500 players and Clifford was DEAD LAST!

Sean Clifford hasn’t been the same since that injury during Iowa game.

I’m happy for this guy. All dude did was play his butt off, play with class, represent Penn State the way any program would love their athletes to represent them and he is a winner. I hope it works out for him, he’s earned it https://t.co/UG0bWrEtfe

This is the year. Sean Clifford has improved so much under this new offense. He’s focused. He’s having fun. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a dark horse for the NFL MVP.
