2009 NFL Draft (Mocks, Evaluation, etc.)

[sandgk]

Miami broke their duck this draft in the 6th round.

You would have to go back before Miami had a relevant football team for a similar dearth of selections - to 1981 precisely. Schnellenberger was already there, but the notion that Miami would contend for a national championship, let alone be a farm club for the pros was still little recognized beyond his dreams.

Mr. Irrelevant is a Succop.

(And a kicker also, as well, too)

Our Bucks sunk like rocks for the most part. Hartline is the only one who went higher than anticipated.

Where's the best place to keep up-to-date on Undrafted Free Agents?

Is he incorrect? They've built a helluva program and they are envied throughout America.

He's not totally incorrect, but apparently you can also get to the NFL if you got to another school like UConn.

Heck, if you suck hard enough you can even go to M*ch*g*n and Bengals will pick you.

The Browns picked up SS Bryan Williams from Akron as a UFA. He was actually at my house when they called.

The Packers picked up RB Tyrell Sutton from Northwestern as a UFA, as well.

I'm also a Chiefs fan.

How would you assess Washington's chances of making the squad? I think he has a great chance of making the squad. Ohio State has a great track record with their DB's at the next level.

Robiskie too. I didn't see too many mock drafts predicting that he'd go at the top of the second round.

Anyone else surprised that Maurice Evans of PSU, who left college a year early, went undrafted?

there was buzz that Robo could sneak into the first round. McPretty on ESPN threw a fit about that potential outcome.

Who? No.

no, most thought he made a mistake coming out.

This makes up for the Raider draft. This made my day.

 

[jlb1705]

Well, he may be unemployed but at least he got the hell out of Happy Valley.

While the author of that article may have thought Evans made a mistake coming out, it seems that the author still would have been surprised, as I was, that Evans wouldn't be drafted at all--here's a quote from the article:

"His stock last year was a first to second round pick, and now he will drop more likely to a second or third round pick."
