By Bobby Burack
The first round of the NFL Draft was full of moments, memories, and surprises but none as touching as when Ryan Shazier walked out with his fiancee Michell to announce the Steelers pick:
Shazier suffered a horrific injury this past season and vowed he would walk again. He will not play this upcoming season but has his mind set on playing one day again.
This moment brought joy to many:
God is good. My dude @RyanShazier

I have been covering the draft for 18 years. I have never frozen in the way I did when Ryan Shazier took the stage. You saw the struggle in his face, but the precious moment when he smiled as he approached the podium. pic.twitter.com/1sUFIz7AfZ

Ryan Shazier, easily the best part of the 2018 NFL draft. And it's not even close.
