The '97 draft class isn't as appreciated as the 1995 class, which now has Hall of Famers in Warren Sapp and Derrick Brooks.
King's college teammate, Sidney Jones, was the more coveted prospect before he ruptured his Achilles at Washington's Pro Day last month.
Days before the 2017 NFL Draft, all eyes are on the Cleveland Browns, who own the No. 1 overall pick.
Ledbetter fits every defense, and his multiple front value should make him a solid third-to-fifth-round prospect for nearly every team. We saw some dividends with our waiver cuts and I think we are going to continue to see dividends as we see our way through the ofseason.
And yes, that means the Browns' recent flirtations with Mitchell Trubisky are great news, especially considering Cleveland has two selections (courtesy of the Wentz trade) above number 14. "We just felt like speed was something we needed to add, and we needed to add it on offense".
The term "sleeper", often used by those who cover the NFL Draft, has turned into a catch-all phrase to describe prospects who are liked but not necessarily viewed as early-round picks. The fourth pick of the second round out of Arkansas, Henry finished his rookie season with eight touchdowns, which was tied for the most by a tight end, and second among all rookies.
Auto dragged for miles by big rig truck
The driver of the four-door sedan was wedged under a dump truck for several miles, but the truck driver was apparently unaware. Miraculously officers with the California Highway Patrol said the driver of the vehicle is ok.
"Just knowing I could improve in certain areas such as the run game and route-running, and just understanding the game as a whole, that played a big part (in returning for his senior year)", Howard said. We'll see if these concerns hold any water, but they certainly look to be affecting his draft stock. He also wasn't a safety for the first two years of his pro career, when he played wide receiver. But I don't think the Panthers take a running back until the second or third round. Problem is, everybody in the league knows the Jets have been exploring the top quarterbacks, so you'd have to believe one of those teams would move ahead of the Jets to grab the signal-caller of their choice. But there's a fine line between aggressiveness and panic. He moved down twice, going from No. 1 to No. 6 to No. 8, finally selecting James Farrior and picking up a handful of additional picks that turned out to be role players at best. I understand the game more. "Generally, we value picks".
Another standout from the HBCU Spirit of America Bowl, Ware has been one of our favorite prospects throughout the draft process. When Nate Hackett took over as interim offensive coordinator, Ivory boosted his yards per carry from 3.2 yards per carry in his first five games to 4.2 yards per carry in his final six games.
He stuck around long enough - through the 2012 season - to impact current Bucs leaders Gerald McCoy and Lavonte David. "Personal character speaks for itself".

Williams struggled with drops towards the end of last season, but in a loaded wide receiver class, Williams is still the cream of the crop. One of the main rationales is because of the club's newly-re-hired assistant coach Lance Murphy, who is the running back's coach at Stanford University for the past three years.
