Tyler Kroft and Michael Burton make up the 2015 NFL draft representation for the Rutgers football program.

Kraft, a 6-foot-6, 240-pound tight end, was picked in the third round by the Cincinnati Bengals while Burton, a 5-11, 242-pound fullback, is headed to Detroit after the Lions chose him in the fifth round.

No Scarlet Knights were chosen last year, but seven went in the 2013 draft.
