The NFL Draft

The NFL Draft


It's that time again, tonight is the night were we find out where all of this year's crop of players go. Such players as: Jimmy Clausen, Sam Bradford, C.J. Spiller, Toby Gerhart, Thaddeus Lewis, and Tim Tebow. I will talk about several important people in the draft.

C.J. Spiller

C.J. Spiller of the Clemson Tigers was the best thing that ever happened to the Tigers. Spiller helped score most of the touchdowns in their games. Pretty much one kick returned per game. He is practically another Devin Hester. I think this guy is going to make 1st round easy. The team I think he is going to are the Jets. They could use him. He will be the starting kick returner for one team, but probably 3rd string for halfback. Here are some seasonal stats:

• 216 attempts

• 1212 rushing yards

• 5.6 Avg.
  

• 12 TDs

From these stats I would say he is not a starting RB. 216 attempts for 1212 yards and 5.6 average is not so hot. Like I said he would make a perfect kick returner.

Sam Bradford

Sam Bradford of the Oklahoma Sooners is entering the draft as a Junior. I think it was a bad decision. After that injury early in the season his stats aren't high. Scouts don't judge how you sit on the bench or rock a sling. Maybe the scouts thought he did enough in the Combine. It is hard to say who will do good in the NFL. All sorts of college players who made history for their college went bad. Here are some stats of Sam Bradford:

• 562 yds (8,403 yards college career)

• 2 touchdowns (88 in college career)

• 0 interceptions (16 in college career)

• 2 sacks (25 in college career)

If Sam Bradford goes to a not so good team he will most likely be a starting quarterback. Most likely he will be 1st round draft pick. Bradford I think will go to Raiders. They could use a good quarterback.

Toby Gerhart

Toby Gerhart of the Stanford Cardinals is one of the best running backs I have seen in a while. If you have ever seen the bulls running at Pampona that is what he is like when he runs. He practically runs over anyone that is in his way. I don't even know why teams bother tackling this kid. It takes three men to take him down. This guy will go First round easy. Here are some stats for this kid:

• 1,871 yards (3,522 in college)
  

• 27 touchdowns (43 touchdowns in college)
  

• 0 fumbles (0 in career)

I think this kid might go to Baltimore. It would do some good for them to have a good running back. We will see where this kid will go.

Tim Tebow

Tim Tebow of the Florida Gators was a great thing for them. 2 years straight he led them to victories in 2 bowl games. This guy is a mixture of Peyton Manning and the old Michael Vick. I gotta feelin that he is going to make 2nd round. This guy is used to Florida's style of offense. NFL does something totally different. NFL doesn't do the option. I think he could play good at any position. Halfback would be great for this guy. Here are some stats:

• 2,895 passing yards (9,285 in college)

• 21 touchdowns (88 in college)

• 5 interceptions (16 in college)

• 29 sacks (57 in career)

I think this guy will go to the Rams. The Rams need to get rid of Bulger. Tebow has Hall of Fame quality.
