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 And of course, #11, 2001- Danny Morgan
Our most recent #11- 2005 DeMarcus Ware: And a more contreversial #11- 1988 Michael Irvin (couldn't find a college picture):
I don't trust myself to remember in the morning. So... NFL DRAFT. TEN DAYS AWAY. #10 pick, 1993: RB Jerome Bettis And of course, #10 pick, 1985 draft. Al Toon
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.
Here's my contribution: 1991 #10 -- Herman Moore, WR - Virginia -- I remember thinking [as a kid] that this guy had the longest arms I had ever seen!
NFL DRAFT. NINE DAYS AWAY... #9 pick, 2002 draft. Big John Henderson. And my who is that? hint: R.I.P.
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.
Brian Urlacher Another #9: 1. Who is this? 2. What school did he attend? 3. What position is he listed at? 4. How many teams? Name them.
That was my guess too... I had no idea but I did my research and is it Jerome Brown? RIP whoever it is.
