I think it would be cool to discuss guys that arent being hyped up as much and that people may not know to much about.

I'll start off with one.

David Ball: WR: New Hampshire: D-II: 6'2: 200 pounds:

He went to a D-II college for some odd reason....I cant remember exactly what but he is a D-I talent. He broke a lot of Jerry Rice's Division Two receiving records. He catches the ball as well as anyone I have ever heard of or seen, counting Larry Fitzgerald, Calvin Johnson, Randy Moss, anyone. He runs about a 4.55 or so but he has great game speed. Remember Jerry Rice was 'slow' but one he got on the field he outran everyone and thats pretty much what this kid does. Very physical and is a has amazing leaping ability. He has been invited to the combine and I wouldnt be surprised to see him shoot up on a lot of draft boards. If he is there in the fourth I would jump all over him. Oh and if anyone wants to doubt whether he could play with Division one talent at the East vs West shrine game he had 3 catches for 80 yards. One was an amazing catch where he had to make a diving stab at it, great play.

Anyone else have any?

Justin Vincent RB, LSU.

Had over 1,000 yards as a true freshman. He's been injury prone ever since. He'll come very late in the draft, 6th or maybe 7th round. I think hes got everything you could ask for in a RB, he's just had to deal with unfortunate injuries.

UNH is Division 1-AA, not D2

Mine...

Justin Rascati QB, James Madison-Seen only once but was impressed. From my reading he has the tools.

Joe Garcia, CB Nevada- 4.5 type guy with good ball skills and plays bigger than 185.

Ryan Smith, CB Florida- Ballhawk type guy with good tackling skills.

CJ Ah You, de Oklahoma-Will be knocked down due to lack of perfect Ht...6-3 is planty big enough to be effective...advanced type guy that can help fairly qickly IMHO.

Matt Muncey lb, Ohio-Tackling machine that will get knocked down because he "only" goes 225-230 or so.

Oscar Lua l USC- too short but too good...anyone see that sideline hit versus UCLA?

Chris Messner, ot Oklahoma-Will get downgraded because he is way light @ 280-285 but great balance and is former TE still growing into position. May not be our "type" guy but underrated IMHO.

Deshawn Wynn, rb Florida-underutilized in the spread but a downhill guy with enough game speed to get to the outside although he prefers running inside.

Jesse Holley WR NC-played at NC...nuff said. Good size Speed guy.

Mike Walker-Good speed and produced despite having Stephen Moffatt as his QB.

How is that for a list....IMHO only before I get flamed for being Nostra*******....

not really a sleeper because he's projected to go in the early 2nd, but if Eric Weddle CB/S of Utah falls to us, I say take him. He's proven down in mobile that he can cover anybody at WR, and he's a playmaker.

Kenny Irons RB (Auburn), Buster Davis LB (FSU), Brandon Merriweather S (UM)
Irons and Merriweather had spectacular junior years that would have made them first rounders if they would've come out last year. Buster Davis is just simply incredible at 5"10".

If Merriweather is still there in the third round we have to take him. I know we took Jason Allen last year, but there are two safety positions. Being a UM fan I've seen what Merriweather can do, no only does he make INT's he makes clutch INT's and has a knack for being wherever the ball is.
