Now that it's over, what does it mean?
Lingering concerns about Will Gholston's knee? He tweeted this today: "The knee is great love this spartan care."

Michigan State has added junior college tight end Jamare Mills for 2012, per Rivals.com and 247Sports.com. If there's a position on this MSU team that needs help, this is it (receiver may be young but there are a lot of options there), and Mills could help solve that.
Anyone remember the buzz Seth Mitchell created as a freshman linebacker in MSU's preseason camp in 2001? The severity of the knee injury he suffered during that camp? The explosion he showed at times in 2003 even though it was obvious his football career couldn't go on much longer? This guy might be a heavyweight champ some day soon.
Edwin Baker to the Chargers in the seventh round, No. 250 overall. Just three picks away from Mr. Irrelevant but I'm sure he'll take it. This gives MSU six players drafted, the most since seven went in 2000. (The record, for the record, is 10 -- in 1973 and 1952).
San Francisco took Trenton Robinson with the 10th pick of the sixth round, No. 180 overall, giving MSU four draftees -- its most since 2005. And at No. 183, B.J. Cunningham goes to the Dolphins, giving MSU five draftees -- its most since 2002.

The big question? Who got hurt? Will Gholston has a bruised right knee, according to information BTN sideline reporter Lisa Byington got on the field. Denzel Drone hurt his left leg and was on crutches afterward. Larry Caper barely played, the word from Spartan Radio's Adam Ruff is a slight concussion. Le'Veon Bell also barely played and was limping a bit after the game.
Hey, that one makes perfect sense! The folks who were high on Keshawn Martin's NFL potential look smart right now -- he goes in the fourth round, No. 121 overall, to the Houston Texans.
Kirk Cousins is off the draft board. And he's joining Heisman winner Robert Griffin III in Washington. The Redskins took Cousins in the fourth round with the 102nd overall pick -- after taking Griffin with second overall pick.
No Andrew Maxwell? No deal breaker. There's plenty to watch and analyze in today's spring game at Spartan Stadium -- but dress in layers and perhaps rain gear.
