Record Breaking 2009 Draft for Buckeyes?
A little hypothetical here.
Laurinitis comes back for his senior year leaving us with:
1. James Laurinitis
2. Malcolm Jenkins
3. Chris "Beanie" Wells
4. Alex Boone
5. Brian Robiskie
6. Todd Boeckman
7. Marcus Freeman
Outside shot, but that list could all be first rounders. As bad as some believe Boeckman played down the stretch, Kiper believes Boeckman is the #2 QB going into next year.
Marcus Freeman could play his way into the first round with a lights out senior season.
Laurinitis, Wells, Jenkins, and potentially Boone are top 10 picks.
Robiskie will be a lock for the first round after next season.
Even a guy like Donald Washington has the potential to be a first rounder with a great junior campaign.
The 2009 draft will certainly be well represented by the Bucks in rounds 1 & 2.

Steve Rehring is the 4th rated guard on NFLDraftScout.com for the 2009 Draft, projected to be a 2nd-3rd round pick.

Next year is a really weak year for senior QB's so Todd definitely has a chance at going in the first. I think you may have forgotten Lawrence Wilson too.

Yeah, I limited it to potential first rounders and didn't think about Wilson.
If he rebounds well, and has a great senior season, it's a possibility. He's certainly top 3 round material though.

I'm sorry... It will take one hell of a turnaround by Todd to be anywhere near the top of the draft.

I've never been impressed with Rehring at guard. But, the coaches seem to like him there.

He's probably not first or second round material. Unless he has a great year and shows well at the combine. He could play in the pros, though.

Take a look at next years draft class though. Take a look at this years draft class.....Matt Ryan is the predicted #3 pick to the Falcons.
Again, peopel think Boeckman was just awful, but try playing in 20 mph winds in sub 35 degree weather. Ain't easy.
Todd is 6'5 and 235-240 lb's. Your prototypical NFL QB body. I agree, he probably shouldn't be considered first round material after the season he just completed, but it isn't always about the numbers you put up, but rather what kind of potential the GM's see in you.
I think if Boeckman stars the entire season, and has a good year, he goes first round.

I'd compare him to a John Navvare... late rounder because of size, strength and potential.
