One San Francisco 49ers draft pick had the best way of celebrating his selection in the NFL Draft.

Defensive end Romello Height went No. 70 overall to the Niners and had quite the wild party at his home. It culminated in Height and his agent, Shawn O’Gorman, jumping into the pool to celebrate.

Needless to say, Height was pumped. So was his draft party, which screamed and cheered as it became clear that the 25-year-old had been drafted.

Part of the reason Height was so excited was because he apparently had some sort of premonition that he would be selected by the Niners.

Height was picked out of Texas Tech, but also spent time playing for Auburn, USC, and Georgia Tech during his collegiate career. He had nine sacks and ten tackles for a loss with the Red Raiders, and was named first-team All-Big 12 last season.
