For the entire 2009 season, Notre Dame fans could always count on two players to never let them down. One of those players was their star quarterback Jimmy Clausen and the other was receiver Golden Tate. While Clausen seems like a sure lock to go in the first round of this years draft, Tate may have to wait a little longer. At this time, Tate is expected to be a potential second round pick and that is mainl ...

The Detroit Lions have made it clear that they are looking to draft the best non-quarterback with the second overall pick in this years draft. Seeing that the Lions are refusing to draft the same position with their first pick every year just confirms that old GM Matt Millen is not in town anymore. Joking aside, if the Lions are going to take the best non-quarterback with the second selection, they should b ...

Born and raised in the Bay Area of California, I can't help but watch college teams from the area. In my time watching the Cal Bears I've had a chance to watch running back Jahvid Best for the past few seasons and witness his great playmaking ability. Best was a Heisman hopeful early in the 2009 season, and it wasn't hard to see why. This young runner has all the tools to dominate and his track speed in the ...

The Kansas City Chiefs thought they had their problems solved at left tackle when they drafted Branden Albert in the 2008 NFL draft. Coming into preseason last year, Albert showed his commitment to his new head coach when dropped his playing weight down to 305 from 341. This mark of maturity seemed to make Albert a favorite to be one of the more improved players on the Chiefs team in 2009 but that wasn't th ...

Both the 49ers and the Seahawks have two first round picks this year, and it looks as if the 49ers are con ...

For the second NFL draft in a row a primer receiver has a broken foot and will not participate in the NFL combine. Georgia Tech's product Demaryius Thomas broke his foot this past week while getting ready for the draft. A projected late first round pick, Thomas will now see his draft stock drop now that he is out for the next four to six weeks. Last year a doctor discovered that Michael Crabtree had a break ...

It looks like Texans Longhorn quarterback Colt McCoy will participate at the NFL rookie scouting combine next week. Some thought McCoy might pass on the scouting combine because of his shoulder injury that he suffered in the college championship game against Alabama. With a month and a half to heal the injury, McCoy seems primed and ready to show what he can do. Hopefully, a strong impression can be made as ...

Much has been made of former Florida Gator quarterback Tim Tebow and what will become of his NFL career. I've seen some analyst over time rank Tebow as a late first round pick and as low as a seventh round pick. Others have also wondered if Tebow is better suited as a tight end rather than a quarterback at the NFL level. One article that I found interesting was from writer Matt Barrow's of the Sacramento Be ...

Like every year in the NFL, many teams will be looking to strengthen their respective offensive lines trough the draft. Out of all the lineman taken in each draft it seems a rookie lineman or two come out and have an impact right away for their respective teams.
