With the 4th pick in the 2010 NFL draft, the Redskins select...
Oklahoma OT Trent Williams
This is a slight surprise because Russell Okung was considered the pick here for many months.
Williams makes the third Oklahoma player drafted in the top four. Quite impressive.
Williams was the pick over Okung because he's a better fit in Mike Shanahan's zone-blocking scheme.

Question
Is this some sort of record with 3 of the top 4 picks coming from the same school?

The Big XII must have some direct feeder pattern to the NFL.
Oklahoma’s starting to look like Miami if this keeps up.

As if recruiting was difficult in the first place, it just got a little easier.
