From 2007 to 2015 we had people drafted. Nobody drafted in 2016 or 2019... Hope we can have some drafted this year...

Peart will be drafted there is no doubt. I think he will surprise with his length and overall ability to play either right or left side.

I think no worse than a mid 3rd round but should be picked in round two at worse.

Sherman is probably the best full back in the NFL.

The SI mock has him mid-50’s. End of 2nd.

Report: Patriots release safety Obi Melifonwu after two seasons

The New England Patriots have reportedly informed safety Obi Melifonwu of his release. Melifonwu spent most of the last two seasons in New England.

>>The New England Patriots have informed safety Obi Melifonwu of his release, according to ESPN's Field Yates.

Melifonwu spent most of the last two seasons in New England. He first signed with the Patriots in Nov. 2018, then signed to their practice squad after being released early in the 2019 season.

The safety never made enough headway to carve out a role on special teams and never had much of a shot at earning regular defensive snaps at safety.<<

Strong effort here by the author to do some digging....

UConn with a shoutout: "Also of note in the AAC, Connecticut has produced a surprisingly high amount of top draft choices (seven)... "

Which college football programs develop the most 3-star recruits into top NFL draft picks?

Some programs really excel at finding under-the-radar recruits and developing them into top-tier NFL draft picks.

He’s just been killed by injuries, really unfortunate. I hope he can get healthy and at a minimum carve out a career as a special teams guy.

Was hoping he'd get some better insight along he way too. He has the physical tools.

Absolutely a big fan of Byron. Lots of love for him, but the music gotta go. Almost couldn't get through the video.

I think he should be a Safety, but due to his speed they keep trying to make him a corner.
