Davin Meggett (RB-Maryland) Signs With Adisa Bakari For 2012 NFL Draft

Davin Meggett had a respectable, but non-flashy 3-star rating by Rivals.com when he was coming out of high school.  The running back from Surrattsville, Maryland was ranked 16th in his state.  But he is the son of former successful running back Dave Meggett (who is currently serving a 30-year prison sentence for rape and robbery), so he certainly […]
