For a guy with the nickname "Swag," Chad Kelly's draft party certainly came off as a disappointment Saturday.

The Ole Miss quarterback was caught napping on his couch by ESPN cameras during the sixth round of the event.

Kelly is among the top quarterbacks in the draft but has seen his stock plummet due to character concerns. He was kicked off the Clemson team due to his conduct, leading him to attend junior college before landing at Ole Miss. He also had to be restrained as a spectator at a high school football game in Buffalo in October.

Kelly comes from excellent football stock as his uncle is Hall of Famer Jim Kelly. The Buffalo Bills legend texted a message of support for Chad to NFL Network host Rich Eisen, who then read the message on air.

Unfortunately for Chad, he's yet to hear his name called as the draft approaches its final round Saturday.
