This is the big day for University of Tennessee safety Eric Berry--NFL draft. He will definitely end up with pots and pots of money, and according to Bleacher Report may be the lowest number draft pick among defensive players in five years. The neat thing is, he's still that accessible and amusing guy who was tweeting about little brothers and riding bikes in the Wal-Mart, as reported in "Eric Berry's Tweets From the Front" in Metro Pulse last fall. Berry's Tweets from today (the times refer to 11:06 a.m., April 22):

Sportswriter John Adams had a nice take on Eric Berry's legacy. Last but not least, Berry's NFL Draft Diary makes good reading--and viewing. Good luck, Eric, stay sweet--and funny!
