who knows if the roster is final or not

 

Hahahahahaha.....all-star game my ass...where the Phuck are all the all-stars? :lol:

 

Ron Brooks and Ken Adams will get drafted, other than that I don't know any of the other people. We had a guy on our team that was named Jordan Jefferson but surely he wasn't invited to an all star game.

 

Personally, I am glad when any of our kids get any added mention.

 

I could see Adams and Brooks but Jefferson? Nope.

 

Regardless, I bet JJ will make some mighty good decisions surrounded by all those all stars.

Damn, I had to laugh:

"Jefferson's addition gives the South three "name" quarterbacks on the roster: UCA's Nathan Dick, who played a redshirt freshman season at Arkansas before transferring to Conway, and Aaron Corp, who started his career at Southern Cal alongside Springdale product Mitch Mustain before transferring to Richmond."

 

Two guys who washed out of D1 programs and one that should have.

 

i just checked every source i could find on Brooks and Adams, and all of them had them as undrafted free agents (except for one that said they might go in the 7th)... but if you do well at Combine and your Pro Day, your stock can shoot up, also going to "All-Star" games like this is a good way to try to get your stock bumped up as well. As for JJ, interestingly enough, I've found multiple sources projecting him to get drafted, believe it or not, but yeah, his performance in the BCS dropped his stock obviously and i don't see him getting drafted

 

No way Ron Brooks goes undrafted, I think he'll be a steal in the 5th.

 

I recognized more names from the high school all-star games.

They must really be hurting for participants if they invited Jefferson. Will any NFL scouts even be in attendance?

I hope Adams and Brooks get enough opportunities to show something. I REALLY don't seee anyone taking a chance on JJ. What would you gain? He was an anomoly at LSU. He was the weak link on a team where he was surrounded by talent. I don't even see him be a "camp body" and I don't know why anyone would waste a spot on their Developmental Squad. They're are tons of unemployed QBs who could run circles around him.

Good luck kid. I really hoped you earned your degree!
