These are all players projected to go in the 7th round or later. I chose them based on their size, speed, production, and ability to fit the Dolphins’ projected 3-4 defense. They would be good UFA to look at

RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis Ole Miss
Height: 5-11 Weight: 220 40 Time: 4.54
230- 1183- 4.9- 6 TD
“01/20/08 - East-West Shrine Week in Review: (Round Middle 6, 7): East-West Shrine Week in Review: (Round Middle 6, 7): RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis (Ole Miss): Short, solid back with good power and initial quickness. A strong RB class and a lack of breakaway speed make him a late-round bargain. Stepped up to handle inside pass rushers in practice and during the game. 01/15/08 - East-West Shrine Monday Practice: This guy runs so low to the ground that the moles are jealous. His shiftiness and stop-start quickness are hard to ignore, as well. We'll see how it translates when the pads come on, but he could make himself enough money this week to keep both those last names.”

WR Marcus Monk Arkansas
Height: 6-6 Weight: 218 40 Time: 4.59
50- 962- 19.2- 11 TD in '06
“He tied for the team lead in catches and garnered freshman All-SEC honors for his efforts. As a sophomore in 2005, Monk caught 35 passes for a team-high 476 yards and seven touchdowns. In 2006, Monk produced the best numbers of his career with 50 catches for a career-high 962 yards. He caught a school record 11 touchdown passes and averaged 19.2 yards per catch” Knee-injury kept him out for most of the season

TE Adam Bishop Nevada
Height: 6-5 Weight: 245 40 Time: 4.76

BLOOMSBURG--Bloomsburg's Jamar Brittingham (Levittown/Neshaminy) has been named to the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Division II All-American team. It is the second time in Brittingham's career he has earned All-American honors from the AFCA.
Brittingham, who was one of nine national finalists for the Harlon Hill Award as the nation's top Division II player, was the 2007 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division Player of the Year for the second time in his career. He also was named to the 2007 Daktronics Division II Football All-Northeast Region first team, and earned first team All-PSAC East honors after finishing the season with 1,435 yards rushing and 23 touchdowns. He led the PSAC in rushing yards; rushing yards per game; touchdowns with 23 touchdowns; points with 142 (2, two-point conversions); and in all-purpose yards with 1,853 yards.

In the season-opener against CW Post, Brittingham scored five times and totaled 34 points setting school marks for most TD's and points in a game. In a win over Millersville he rushed for a career-high 257 yards. Set a school record for longest TD run with an 87-yarder against Kutztown. Twice this season he earned PSAC Eastern Division Player of the Week honors. During the year he also caught 8 passes for 84 yards; returned six punts for 79 yards and 12 kickoffs for 255 yards. He is also 1-2 passing for 38 yards with one touchdown.

He also became the all-time leading rusher in PSAC history and also became its all-time leading scorer. In all, Brittingham holds 28 school and conference records.
For his career he had 29 games in his career with 100 or more yards rushing yards, with 10 of those being games with 200 or more yards rushing. He finished his career 5th all-time in Division II history in career scoring; 14th in total rushing yards and 18th in all-purpose yards.
Brittingham will finish his collegiate football career at the 2008 Valero Cactus Bowl, the Division II All-Star game, to be played at Javelina Stadium in Kingsville, Texas on Friday, January 11, 2008 at 7:00 p.m.
 
The same school the produced Jahari Evans, starting gaurd for the Saints.
 
wow taht Raebal guy is one hell of a player. Hard hitter, never quits and one SMART/TOUGH muther
 
HERCUUULEEES SSSAATTEELLLEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

AT GUARD. WOOOOOOT

THE SATELE BRO"S!

no...but in all seriousness he will prob. be picked around 6-7...I think he'll be drafted. would love to see him in a phin uni.
 
based on what i just read in these posts,certainly players worth taking a look at,because it sure can't hurt us.
 
Green-Ellis and Johnson flashed a little in the games I saw them in. Especially Green-Ellis. I have not looked at either closely, but I did notice them when looking at other players.
 
Haven't found any video of him but out of all of them Adam Bishop the TE from Nevada seemed like he could be the biggest sleeper. Good size, good speed, it said he blocked very well and averaged 16 yards a catch. For a TE that's really good
 
Boise State- OT RYAN CLADY

He's going in the first round, fer sure... Just still a little under looked to be honest.
 
Jordon Dizon OLB Led nation in solo tackles
Jamie Silva FS - was awesome in the East/West game
James Rivers WR - always played big in bowl games
Ryan Grice-Mullens Slot - highest ypc among Hawaii recievers
Anthony Alridge RB - amazing ave. and speed, however very small.
 
Kolo Kapanui....TE....H-Back.....FB Maybe the best playmaking TE available

Xavier Lee......TE......H-back.....WR Maybe a better WR than Adarius Bowman

Danny Woodhead......RB........Division 2 player of the year, rushed for nearly 3000 yds
 
I'm still shocked that Marcus Monk is projected so low. I guess it is partly due to the fact that he was somewhat banged up this year. He would be a steal in the 6th or 7th if you ask me.

I think Kory Robertson out of Virginia Tech might be a nice UDFA pick to develop at NT along with Soliai. Andrew Bain has great size and decent speed at guard and would be a hometown kid to bring in for training camp. Greyson Gunheim from Washington is your standard tweener that might be worth taking a look at as a special teamer and OLB backup.
