It seems that way...lol

you can see who the strong (persuasive) scouts are in any war room, as most teams tend to have favored schools/regions/conferences.

As to that group... as i said earlier, this was a great year for depth and at least 2/3 those players would have been drafted any other seasons.

Baker of Tenn, should have a fair chance to make the team, though he is not a great tackler. I rather liked Kevin Beard in college, but we're tight at WR. Had this been any other season he would have gone in rounds 4 or 5. Kurt Sigler might make the team as a guard, maybe center, though he needs to improve his run blocking as he's a bit weak. Shaun Williams was a steal, and might make an excellent 3rd down/change of pace back. Jason Peters should make the team. Jabari Greer might have the best chance to make the team of the CBs though he is primarily a track star, not a football player.

Hey Ing? What information do you have on Dan Holland (LB, Mansfield University). I know that D-II guys don't get a lot of looks, but here's some info on the guy:

Let me know what you think. Last I knew, he was getting a look from the Philly Soul.

I've herd that Spicer from Western Carolina has more of a shot than Ritzmann does.Is that because he was offered a longer contract?

All contracts are not guaranteed. They make the team if they unseat an esablished vet.

Agreed. I like what I've read of S Mark Graham as well.
