Last updated: May 2, 2009 1. St. Louis – QB Sam Bradford ~ Oklahoma = The Rams could go ahead and get their quarterback of the future with the first overall pick. Bradford might have been the top pick had he come out in 2009, so it’s pretty much safe to say he’s the frontrunner […]

When you think of some of the easier and more difficult transitions football players have to make when jumping from college to the NFL, what positions come to mind? Historically there are a few select positions that dominate this discussion, yet there are also a few that not too many people talk about. Let’s start with […]
Marvin Harrison vs. Torry Holt So there are two of the all-time greatest receivers still left out there in free agency, wondering to themselves…Why isn’t anyone giving us a chance? The question boggles my mind just the same. Here, I will break down these two future hall of famers by the statistics, their careers up […]
Just so everyone knows, I made this team based on my positional rankings for each player as well as the general consensus of who will be most successful in the NFL, prior to ever playing. I will also have the more interesting and personal list of “All NFL Draft Sleeper Team” which you can check out on the homepage as well.
Offense QB – Stephen McGee ~ Texas A&M = Another guy who lit it up at his pro day. He also can really run (4.6). Has a pretty decent set of tools to develop into a solid backup. RB – Cedric Peerman – Virginia = His attitude is what I love. A very serious guy […]
There are a few very admirable guys out there to include: Jerry Rice, Tim Brown, Cris Carter, Art Monk, Raymond Berry, Lynn Swann, Andre Reed, and Marvin Harrison. Guys who did it all on the field, but also showed respect to the game and did it the right away. It’s a shame the media prevents […]

Last updated: April 22, 2009 1. LB Aaron Curry – 6?2? 254 ~ Curry impressed me so much with the combine that he has jumped to the #1 ranked prospect in this draft. This guy can do anything and everything you ask for in a linebacker. He will make an instant impact for whoever drafts […]
