Sign Isaac Sopoaga NT 1. Chris Long, Virginia Height: 6-4. Weight: 284. 40 Time: 4.73. Projected Round: Top 5 Pick. Chris Long, who can play end in the 4-3 and possibly nose guard in the 3-4, had 57 tackles and five sacks in 2006. Son of former NFL star and current FOX analyst Howie Long. 2. Chris Williams, Vanderbilt Height: 6-6. Weight: 315. 40 Time: 5.13. Projected Round: 1-2. Co-captain of Vanderbilt's football team, Chris Williams simply doesn't allow sacks. His 40 at his size is remarkable. 2b. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, Tennessee State Height: 6-2. Weight: 182. 40 Time: 4.37. Projected Round: 2. A tall corner who runs a 4.3 is pretty rare. Getting one that picks off six passes in a season is like finding the Loch Ness Monster. 3. Caleb Campbell, SS, Army Height: 6-2. Weight: 223. 40 Time: 4.47. Projected Round: 3-4. You have to love the 40 that comes with Caleb Campbell's size. Given his background, I think we can assume that he has a great work ethic. 4. Kendall Langford, Hampton Height: 6-6. Weight: 294. 40 Time: 4.92. Projected Round: 3-4. Recorded eight sacks in 2006. Can play defensive end in a 3-4 as well 6. Brad Cottam, Tennessee Height: 6-8. Weight: 270. 40 Time: 4.68. Projected Round: 6. A monstrous tight end with decent size, Brad Cottam could be the best blocker at his position in this class. 7. Kerry Brown, Appalachian State Height: 6-6. Weight: 310. 40 Time: 5.16. Projected Round: 7. Kerry Brown has played against low competition, but he was named to the All-Southern first team in 2006 for his services at left guard.
I love DRC and believe with time he could be a heck of a corner. Hes got size but is pretty Raw. My only problem with your mock is after the first 2 picks theres alot of questions. All small school guys and injury risks. I do like everyone you have listed but question the talent level they have played. DRC and Caleb Cambell may be a little high but all these players could become players just to much iffy picks for my taste
who do you guys think dominique rodgers cromartie compares too? I just went on nfldraftwatch.com and they compared him to mike rumph. we all know how he turned out, is he really like him? this is what it says on DRC * Pros: Great athletic ability and ball skills, does great in zone coverage. * Cons: Poor competition. Somewhat raw. Really shies away from contact and doesn’t play the run. * Pro Comparision: Probably Mike Rumph is the closest guy to his skill set - not saying he’ll turn out like Rumph, but they have similar strengths and weaknesses. * Best Situation: Going to a defense focused around zone coverage with a strong linebacking corps and defensive line. The less he’s called on against the run, the better. * Drafted in round: 3. Barring a great combine/Senior Bowl, no one would take him early based on his competition, but no one would take him later based on skill. http://nfldraftwatch.wordpress.com/2007/12/05/sleeper-watch-dominique-rodgers-cromartie/
