[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 761721, member: 7261"] Think you forgot about Maurice Clarett (2005, 3rd rd) and Joe Montgomery (2nd rd. but 1999) I understand what you are saying "view Wisconsin RB's cautiously, they may not be as good as they appear". While there could be some truth to that with a some of the RB's that came out of Wisconsin, the exact opposite seemed to happen with Clement and White. It is no different than any position or any player from any college. BTW, I was one of those opposed to drafting Clement, but for me it was due to a character issue, not his talent. I am glad to see that he may have grown up. LOL on you not having a problem where James White was drafted, I would loved to have selected him instead of Khyri Thornton, Richard Rodgers or Carl Bradford. Someone earlier used that same notion with Fumagalli, "overrated Badger homer, no TE's from Wisconsin have been any good" and all I have been saying is: Wouldn't a good scout look at more than just stats or what school a player played at in making his evaluation? Do you think Ron Dayne was the #2 RB taken in the draft at #11 because he was a sure 2000 yds/season runner in the NFL? I'm sure he "slipped" some, because of how the Badger OL was that year. Same with Ball and whoever else you might want to throw in there. Years later, after the fact, it is very easy to see if a player should have been drafted and where. Take a look at the draft Dayne came out of, see how many of those guy jump out at you as rock solid draft picks at when they were selected. Same could be said for just about any draft.
