[cowboyfan4life_mark]

See what you guys think of how these players will transition to the NFL.

10. Mike Hart, RB, Michigan
Hart doesn’t have great size, but he’s tough and has a big heart. If Michigan wins the Big Ten, he’ll be the main reason. Hart ranks fourth in the nation with 1,078 yards.

9. DeSean Jackson, WR, Cal
Every time Jackson has the ball in his hands, he’s a threat to score. He’s a human highlight film. Jackson has 20 receiving touchdowns and six punt return scores in his career.

8. Brian Brohm, QB, Louisville
The team has been a huge disappointment, but the 4-4 record certainly isn’t Brohm’s fault. He is second in the nation with 2,993 passing yards and has tossed 24 touchdowns.

7. Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College
He has taken his game to the proverbial “next level” this season – and NFL scouts have noticed. Ryan's 2,148 passing yards lead the ACC.

6. Chris Long, DE, Virginia
Howie's son has a motor that won’t quit. He’s a major reason the Cavaliers are a big surprise. Long leads the ACC with 10 sacks and is second with 13 tackles for loss.

5. Andre' Woodson, QB, Kentucky
A Wildcat among the nation’s top-five players, and we’re not talking basketball? Believe it. Woodson has passed for 2,201 yards and 26 touchdowns this season.

4. Jake Long, OT, Michigan
The nation’s best offensive lineman. Hey, there has to be somebody making holes for Mike Hart, right? Long should be a top 10 pick in the NFL Draft.

3. Tim Tebow, QB, Florida
The nation’s best dual-threat quarterback. However, he hurts you with his strength, not his speed. He has accounted for more than 73 percent of the Gators' offense this season.

2. Glenn Dorsey, DT, LSU
It’s rare that a defensive lineman is the focal point of a defense, but Dorsey is a rare defensive lineman. He leads the nation's second-ranked defense.

1. Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas
The boss Hog is a load with the ball in his hands, and Arkansas tries to get it to him any way it can. McFadden is averaging 133 yards rushing per game.

Is it me or is Tebow not made for the NFL. He does things that you cant do in the NFL.

 

[theogt]

I think it's a terrible list. Jackson, Hart, and Tebow wouldn't even be in my top 20.

I don't think he'll ever be great but he's been a better passer this year. I suppose he could keep getting better. I think Woodson isn't a lock to do much. I look forward to comparing McFadden's rookie year to Adrian Petersons

10. Mike Hart, RB, Michigan
I think he'll play in the NFL, but only as a change of pace back/second string. He'll stick around, but he's not first round material.

9. DeSean Jackson, WR, Cal
He's more of a receiver than Ginn is. I think he can be a very good player in the league and is someone I'll be keeping an eye on in April.

8. Brian Brohm, QB, Louisville
Brohm's okay, but I don't think he's an elite QB. He'll no go doubt top 15, but I'm not seeing anything to make him Peyton Manning vs. Kyle Boller.

7. Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College
Same as Brohm.

6. Chris Long, DE, Virginia
He'll be a solid player in the league, but not a star. He'll have a Patrick Kerney-like career.

5. Andre' Woodson, QB, Kentucky
I think he's the best QB of the bunch and a chance to be a nice starter. Might take a few years since he'll go high, but he has talent.

4. Jake Long, OT, Michigan
Hard to tell with lineman as he could be a Orlando Pace or a Robert Gallery. He's got some great skills and would be an upgrade over a diminishing Flozell.

3. Tim Tebow, QB, Florida
Not sold on him as a pro. I don't think he has the skills in the backfield to be an effective pocket passer and he won't be running over people nearly as much in the pros.

2. Glenn Dorsey, DT, LSU
This guy's good - real good. I think he's going to be a Pro Bowler much like Sapp, Stroud, Seymour, etc. Love to have him.

1. Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas
Gotta love him. I wonder how well he would do if he wasn't sharing carries with Jones, but that also means less mileage on him. I don't think he's going to be LT, but he's going to be a good player with a few Pro Bowls/playoffs under his wing.

I have Woodson as the #2 overall. He's an incredible QB that has the skills that will translate very well to the NFL.

How in the world is James Lauranitis on this list?

Hes only a true Sophomore and I dont believe he has come close to reaching his ceiling.

I think Tebow could grow into a very good passer.

I still say we should trade Browns pick and the 2nd round pick to move up and grab him and then use our pick to grab King later on in the first round trade next years first for Fitz and we would be solid...

Refresh my memory again about who you said "him" is, please.

The only one on that list to me , who is worth a top ten pick, is Mcfadden. I know everybody loves them some Glenn Dorsey, but L.S.U. players just do not get it done for me.It's not like we have had good luck with them. I don't care for Les Miles as coach anyway.I would hope he would give the Cowboys good info on any player since he used to coach here.He seems more like a guy who's ego would not let him tell you if a player had any warts on him. I would be pretty comfortable with Jerry getting all the info from Houston Nutt about Mcfadden.Just my opinion, speaking from my Dallas Cowboy perspective.

Dorsey may turn out to be a monster at the next lvl, but he has yet to impress me.

Dorsey and Jake Long are definetely Top 10 prospects to me and well worth the pick.

Did you mean NOT on this list? If so, I completely agree with you. He's without a doubt in my top 5.
