    I figured since they have their own countdown to the season thread up there in the main forum, us draft forum guys need our own thread to represent.

    The only thing different, however many days are left, post the names (and pics) of some of the more notable guys drafted at that spot over the years.

    I meant to start this yesterday, because it was 12 days away, and we've had our share of great #12 picks over the years, but alas, I forgot. So, if you'd be so kind as to not let this thread die a horrible death:

    11 days away

    #11, 2000- Ron Dayne

    [​IMG]

    And of course, #11, 2001- Danny Morgan

    One of the underrated #1 corners in the league who I think is the 2nd best to Champ Bailey- 1999 #10 CB Chris McAlister (right):

    Another great defensive back:

    Let's have a little fun and who can answer these questions correctly?

    1. Who is this?
    2. What college did he attend?
    3. How many NFL teams did he play for? Name them.

    Nope. It's not that great of a pic, I know. This one's really harder than the last few, because he died very early on in his career after a car accident.
