Marcus Griffin can't cover his shadow, and Dallas Griffin would make Clay Shiver look stout against the rush.

Marcus Griffin, Dallas Griffin, Michael Griffin, Cedric Griffin. How many Griffins went to Texas?

 

[Big Dakota]

Brian Robiskie & Earl Bennett on the list but not Hardy or Bowman?

 

[jay cee]

I had to look through the lists 5 times before I saw the second one was for Jr's.

Talk about confusion. :laugh2:

 

[ologan]

Ain't had too much luck with Longhorn players...Don't think thats about to change!

 

[Bob Sacamano]

where the hell is DJ Hall on the WR, Senior list?

 

[Cowboykid90]

4. Dorien Bryant, Purdue

guy to watch out for in the NFL...Steve Smith type of Wr...great speed and hands and is strong in blocking had a chance to see a couple purdue games and man corners looked silly against him.

1. Limas Sweed, Texas

Kiper needs to go roll around in a cactus patch.

Sweed shouldn't even be picked in the top 3 rounds. No way is he the best senior WR in the nation.
