Potential drafted Buckeyes, 2009 (depending on who declares plus graduates):
The "O"- - Boeckman
- C. Wells
- Mo Wells
- Robiskie
- Hartline
- Small (with a good season)
- Nicol/Ballard
- Boone
- Rehring
- Cordle
- Person
The "D"- - Denlinger (at least one of the DTs, anymore might be a stretch)
- Worthington
- Abdallah
- Freeman
- Laurinaitis
- Jenkins
- Washington
- Coleman
- Russell
"The STers"- That's 19-22 potential, depending on how they play both individually and as a unit. The NFL is placing a greater emphasis on PR/KRs with the emergence of such players like Devin Hester (so don't count out Small). Remember, a year is a LOT of time in football terms. Bigger, faster, stronger, and you'll see at least one or two surprises that may not be considered NFL prospects this year really mature into solid prospects next year. Our DTs may have been suspect this past season, but I won't be shocked if they are considered strengths next season. |

I could definately see 16-19 Bucks going in that draft. That list was getting a little thin there towards the end. A few stretches too. TE's won't get their names called unless OSU decides to actually utilize them. The STers will probably get picked up by a team but not drafted. And I'm not sure about all the other DB's and DL that were mentioned either. I think it's safe to say that another year of experience, another year of getting stronger and faster, another year of expossure and another year of chasing the title doesn't hurt their chances. If I recall correctly the Bucks have the record for most players taken in the draft in 2004. Do they still have that record and how many were taken again, 14? Guessing???

How warm do you think it was in Green Bay or Foxboro this past weekend and how warm do you think it will be there this weekend. A QB that can't make that adjustment won't have much calling in the pros.

Gee let's see here, multiple times Super Bowl MVP in Brady and possibly the greatest quarterback to have played the game in Farve (By the way combined with nearly 30 years of PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE) vs. a guy in his first season as a COLLEGE starting QB....
Nope don't see a difference there  |

how'd Brett Favre's numbers compare first 3/4's of the season compared to last 1/4? | |
