BREAKING NEWS!!! Updated at 6:50 p.m. EDT: Michael Sam was taken by the St. Louis Rams with the 249th pick in the NFL draft. The NFL stood on the brink of a historical decision Saturday and it took until nearly the end of the draft for Michael Sam to become the first openly gay player drafted into the league. Sam, the SEC co-defensive player of the year at Missouri, was taken late in the seventh and final round by the St. Louis Rams with the 249th pick (out of 256 over the three days of the draft). St. Louis is a great landing spot for him. He’ll join a stellar defense under Gregg Williams and he spent his college career just over two hours away. Sam, filmed by ESPN as he received the phone call from Rams Coach Jeff Fisher, broke down and sobbed as he learned that he was going to the Rams. - Washington Post
