'Oh, I'm super excited, that's really the motto, is attack and be physical,' said Schwesinger.

The other draft picks on display were running backs Quinshon Judkins from Ohio State and Dylan Sampson from Tennessee. Quarterbacks Dillon Gabriel, out of Oregon, and Shedeur Sanders from Colorado also started practice Friday.
