1. Who’s your favorite, non-obvious pick in the draft this year who you actually watched play?
Alex Reyes. Most punters would take 3 steps to punt the ball in the time Reyes took 2 steps. High booming punts though.
2. Who’s your RADIOACTIVE BIOHAZARD DO NOT TOUCH AAAIIIIGGGHHH pick to avoid in this draft?
Brady Quinn, son of Ron Pawlus and uncle of Rick Mieir.
3. Who’s your favorite college stud who failed to find success in the pros? Again, we have no leanings here.
Ron “Great” Dayne. Without those crappy MAC defenses and Northwestern to run through, Dayne looked like the lazy lard butt that he is with the Giants, the Broncos, the Texas, the…
4. In the big draft board of life, where were you?
Jarrett Peyton is our role model. After playing soccer for so many years and looking good throughout, we inexpectably switched to football. Once, we thought a junk NFL team would put us on the taxi squad. Now, we hope a nice NFL Europe team will give us a rookie free agent contract.

1. USM’s Jasper Faulk, leadership, athleticism, and experience.
2. I wouldn’t touch Kevin Kolb with a 39.5′ pole. He and the rest of the Koogs are the epitome of dysfunction.
3. Rohan Davey.
4. Go watch Invincible. I’ve applied to med school for 8 years, took dead end jobs in the meantime, got kicked in the teeth and walked on, but I finally gotz mine. On a side note, I love me some special teams.

Irishdevil: If you want to avoid the hyper-expense of Gameplan, and get CFB here in Ireland, without the computer hassle, I do also recommend subscribing to ESPN-owned NASN (available through Sky and NTL), for about 10 euro a month; you’ll get gameday, and a smattering of the main ESPN games, too, though it lacks the flexibility of GamePlan

1. That kid from Duke, cornerback I think.
2. Reggie Ball. Combine invitee what?
3. Would have liked to See PJ Daniels succeed in Baltimore, but I know its not to be.
4. 3rd Rounder, but will prove to be an overlooked player who later becomes a hall of famer in first round balloting.

4. Solid second-day, mid-round prospect, showed flashes of brilliance in college but took plays off for no ascertainable reason. Bounced around the league on and off practice squads for four years and had a sudden dramatic turnaround which resulted in last three years pro-bowl shoulda, but didn’t. Now holds a key starting position in a successful secondary. Thought of as a future coach after playing days are over…who’da thought?
