Kyle Calloway drafted by Buffalo Bills in seventh round

Posted on 24 April 2010

History was made on Saturday during the seventh round of the 2010 NFL Draft.

Former Iowa offensive lineman Kyle Calloway was chosen with the 216th overall pick by the Buffalo Bills. Calloway became the sixth Hawkeye to be taken in this year’s draft, a new record for most Iowa players drafted since the format was reduced to seven rounds in 1994.

Calloway was the second offensive lineman from Iowa to be taken, as his former teammate Bryan Bulaga was a first round choice of the Green Bay Packers on Thursday.

This is the second time in the Kirk Ferentz era the Bills have drafted a Hawkeye offensive lineman. Buffalo drafted Ben Sobieski during the 2003 NFL Draft.
