I posted this earlier...

Brandon Mason - Stony Brook
Herb Donaldson - Western Illinois
Rodney Ferguson - New Mexico
Tyler Roehl - North Dakota State
Kyle Bell - Colorado State
Josh Vaughan - Richmond
PJ Hill - Wisconsin
Arian Foster - Tennesee


Bell played in Colorado, so I would imagine he's got a head start. Ferguson may have been seen by a scout watching some DBs this last fall. Since we may still remember Ron Dayne, I'd imagine Hill is on the outside looking in. I really like Tyler Roehl, so after all that the Texans will probably sign Foster.

I think Bell just went to the Jags...

so far,
Jason Watkins OT Florida
J. Leondard DT Hawaii
Arian Foster RB Tennessee
Jeremiah Johnson RB Oregan

Uh oh...I'm looking at Terrell Davis.

If Foster makes the team he may start this year or next. Watch him slide through the holes. And hands!

Jeremiah Johnson dude can cut and be a good 3rd down back...

He looked very good at the Senior Bowl.

Tennessee has a history of producing good backs so Foster should stick.

a 6'3" 293lbs DT who ran 4.93. I guess they are serious about attacking the backfield. I like that idea.

Roy,

I found this regarding Josh Leonard:

Leonard wowed NFL scouts earlier this month at UH's Pro Day by bench-pressing 225 pounds 41 times and completing the pro-agility test in 4.35 seconds.

Best at the combine Terrance Taylor 37 reps w/ 225......so, he seems pretty strong, your take?

This guy looks like a beast. Oh, he also had a faster Cone and Shuttle time than Glover Quinn.

You be a regular Ms. Cleo Roy!

I'm pretty excited about Jeremiah Johnson. He plays faster than his time at the combine. I figured he would be a good pickup in the 6th round. Foster I don't know so much about, but he looks good in his highlights (who doesn't?).
I think either one of these guys has a chance to make the roster, assuming we don't make a move for a veteran.

Jeremiah Johnson ? I thought he was a Wasatch fur-trapper ?

You're right. And, he looked a lot like Robert Redford.

That was a great movie, one of my favorite westerns. And Boise is one of my favorite citys, hope everythings going OK up there these days ?

Well, the economy is in the crapper like everywhere else, but the trees are leafing out, the rivers are full and my favorite golf course in the mountains has all 18 holes open and the greens came through the winter in very good shape. Very OK in my book.
