In case you missed it on draft night, below is the video of the moment Tom Telesco called Rashawn Slater in the green room to tell him that they’re making him the Chargers’ first-round pick.

I don’t know about you, but it’s one of the best things about draft day, to me. There aren’t many situations where you can watch the literal seconds where a person’s life changes forever.

Now for today’s links.
