Re: Cool Stories within the draft.

There's a Japanese RB in my CCM's current Draft Class that plays for Hawai'i. He was a soccer star on the U-17 team in Japan and walked on. He's projected to go 1st pick of the 5th round, and ran for like 180 yards in his first game. He's a speed back at 5'8, 188.

Re: Cool Stories within the draft.

Iowa QB Jack Kane was a good one. At the start of the season he was hyped to be a can't miss prospect that could have gone #1. But he stumbled early in the year and many were asking whether he could handle the pressure.

He righted himself and finished very strong and in the senior bowl outplayed the expected #1 ovr QB from Kentucky. Some were wondering if Kane was the best QB prospect. But at the combine concerns over his arm strength appeared after he was unable to throw the out route and his passes were ducks. He ended up falling to mid second round.

There was a pretty cool story about twin CBs that played beside each other their entire college career going to the draft together and arguing over who should be picked higher

Jordan Parks went back to school for one more year in my CCM, then got drafted number 1 overall to the Raiders.

Yep got that one. The one switch to FS though. Neither one was projected to be drafted. I drafted both in the 7th because I scouted them and they looked to have good attributes. The one who stayed at CB came out at a 72. The other one was a 68.
