[QUOTE="pack_in_black, post: 196496, member: 631"] [b]Re: Predicting the '08 draft[/b] I've never seen really any of these guys, so I gotta go by scouting reports. I like what I've heard about Talib, and here are a few other CBs who's stock could shoot up when the combine and workouts roll around.. [b]Mike Jenkins, USF ( 6'0", 200, 4.49 )[/b] - He'll probably be gone before we pick [b]Trae Williams, USF( 5'10", 185, 4.45 )[/b] - He's a junior, so he may not declare. From what I've heard, he's got the higher ceiling of the two South Florida guys, though. Both excel at man coverage, but Trae has better ball skills. [b]Terrell Thomas, USC ( 6'1", 200, 4.47 )[/b] - I know he got hurt earlier this season again, but can anyone tell me if he finished the season? Also likes to play man-to-man, and is expected to be a player who can be left on an island, but he has a very bad history of injuries, so durability is a huge ???
