It was a Long draft, again

   Howie Long's son, Kyle Long, was drafted round 1 pick 20 by the Chicago Bears. Howie Long was drafted round 2 pick 48 by the Oakland Raiders. Howie Long was an eight time pro-bowler, one time Superbowl champion, and an NFL Hall of Famer. Kyle Long was drafted 28 picks before his dad, Howie Long. Kyle Long was the third fastest Offensive Linemen at the combine in the 40 yard dash with a time of 4.94. In week four of this years pre-season Kyle will be playing his dads old team the Oakland Raiders. Howie Long was 6ft 5in Kyle Long is 6ft 6in. Kyle started 10 of 12 college games in 2012. Howie started in 179 games in the NFL. Will Kyle Long follow in his father's footsteps?  Peyton and Eli Manning followed their father's footsteps (Archie Manning) in fact they may have played better than their father, so maybe Kyle Long will play like his dad also. We'll see this season how Kyle Long does.
