He was selected in the supplemental first round of the draft.
Carolina just did it this past year taking Cam Newton in the first round after taking Jimmy Clausen in the 2nd round last year.....Carolina didn't have a first round pick in the 2010 draft so in essence it was pretty much the same value.
The University of Southern California with 77 overall first round draft picks as of the 2012 draft.
