Draft Day Sleepers

The folks at Rivals.com have put together a list of the most underrated players entering the draft. The full article is located at http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_yl...pe=story_draft, but here are the guys they list as the top 10 sleepers.

1. Will Blackmon - CB - Boston College
2. Daryn Colledge - OT - Boise St.
3. Mark Anderson - DE - Alabama
4. Joe Klopfenstein - TE - Colorado
5. Mike Degory - OC - Florida
6. LeKevin Smith - DT – Nebraska
7. Roman Harper - S - Alabama
8. DeMario Minter - CB - Georgia
9. Wali Lundy - RB - Virginia
10. Charles Gordon - CB - Kansas

I was particularly interested with what they have to say about Lundy: "A compact senior tailback who was very productive over his career. He has struggled with nagging injuries that have hurt his final grade because clubs are questioning his durability. He has produced against top competition and may be among the best goal-line runners in recent memory. He probably falls to the late rounds where he could be a major steal - we believe he carries an NFL starting grade."

What do you guys think about Rivals.com's possible draft day sleepers?

Re: Draft Day Sleepers

So, who else do you think will be the sleepers of this draft?

I'm kind of high on Brodie Croyle as a late-round pick. If he can stay healthy, I like his chances of at least being a back-up in the league for a long time. Bobby Carpenter's a late 1st / early 2nd, so its hard to call him a sleeper, but I do think he's a better linebacker than some of the guys in front of him.

Re: Draft Day Sleepers

I have mentioned Leonard Pope before, Chad Jackson the wide receiver from Florida and Hagans the receiver from ASU.
