Most Drafted?

[iloveirish_12]

What school had the most players taken in the draft? Not signed, drafted. Because Notre Dame had to be up there.

It's gotta be USC or Texas or Florida

i know LSU had quite a few not to mention 4 in the first friggen round, but i guess nobody notices that Russell was overflowed with talent to make him look better than what he is.

A good year indeed. That's pretty impressive -- shows what a good job CW and his staff were able to do with developing the talent they had. And whets your appetite, of course, to see what they do with their own players.

That is impressive, especially considering Walker, and Mcknight were near misses. Morton may have been drafted, Samardzija, Carlson, and Zibby would have been drafted....etc

With Samardzidja definitely it would have been 8.

Carlson and Zibby will go next year...

 

[IrishGirl10]

Carlson will def. go next year.

Zibby needs to have a better year this year, then what he did last year!

He does, but he's such a good raw talent in some ways I am pretty confident he will be drafted. He's a lot like Rocky Boiman in that aspect. He won't be a first day prospect, but will probably go in the 4-6th rounds. And he WILL play on Sundays.

 

[IrishGirl10]

oh, I agree with that.

 

[AlbuquerqueIrishFan]

Zibby will play. He adjusts to anything. Remember he was a qb in highschool.

 

[Junkhead]

If he has a great year, he could be a 1st-2nd rounder. If he has another average year, late round.

 

[jboxer562]

he's also got that NFL toughness

 

[goldendomer]

not just NFL toughness BOXING toughness!

Besides, what team wouldn't take the risk on a phenomenal athlete who also returns kicks well? It turns it into an almost no lose situaion. Worst case (barring injury) is that he plays on special teams, maybe not what they had hoped, but better than a flameout. He'll get drafted if he has a solid year, while a breakout year would vault him to a very high pick indeed.

What kind of team would be dumb enough to actually DRAFT a guy as a kick returner??? Let alone in the first round. Let alone as the 9th pick.

I guess Zibby has a BILLIANT FUTURE based on his returns alone.

hahahahahahahaha

LMI, are you taken vicodin again?
