Players Declaring For the Draft

How about we just use their list.  If you see it updated, let me know and I'll do the same.

Ricky-Jean Francois

Is an absolute monster. He should stay and develop another year in college, but I would LOVE to have him on our team. In 2-3 years, if he stays healthy, he will be a beast in the NFL. Then again, by entering the draft early, he will probably drop out of the top 15…

Depends on how far he falls

I know he’s an amazing talent, I’ve even heard some people say he’s better than Dorsey. I wouldn’t mind taking him in the second-third (though I doubt he’ll fall all the way to the third).

I am like your Dan Aykroyd and biglow would be Jane, the ignorant slut. -Chad

I don't see how he makes it out of the first round.

But you never know. As far as being better than Dorsey, if he stayed one more year in college, then probably so. But if he leaves now, he’ll just be another “what could have been” college player. He definately would have helped LSU get back to the National Championship next year.

Looks like we're going to have many options

at WR this draft. If we take one high, I’d love to get UNC Senior Brandon Tate.

I'd prefer...

Hakeem Nicks his teammate. The guy is a big target with speed and great hands, did anyone see the catch he made against West Virginia. Brandon Tate just seems like another Devin Hester a small quick reciever who made a name ffor himself returning kicks and punts.

Josh Freeman

This guy could solve the quarterback problems for the Bears. He is an absolute beast, he can throw the ball on the move with precision and he has the mobility to pick up first downs with his legs. Plus I think we could easily get him in the 2nd round perhaps even the 3rd. He is a prototipical pro quarterback that has mobility.

You're too late using beast. You must find another adjective.

Ricky-Jean Francois is already been declared a beast.

Kick it to me... I'm open!

I think Javon Kearse still holds the rights to that one...

Man, he really WAS a freak back in the day… that dude was unreal!

Right, but we can use Freak for draft

purposes. Once he is drafted unless by us, who cares what his nickname is?

Ha..

Wasn’t Francois called a monster. Close to a beast but slightly different.

Lesean McCoy

leaning towards the pros.

Maclin’s deciding today (no link, but it’s been plastered all over yesterday).

Actually, just repost the list:
