ESPN wrote:STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- All-America linebacker Paul Posluszny will bypass the NFL draft and return to Penn State for his senior year.

Posluszny, winner of the Butkus Award as the country's top linebacker, partially tore two ligaments in his right knee late in the fourth quarter of the Nittany Lions' 26-23 triple overtime win over Florida State in the Orange Bowl last week.


This guy was carted off the field, x-rayed and then demanded to go back to the field (still suited up) so he could watch the rest of the game from the cart in the endzone. An amazing display of team leadership and passion if you ask me. It's guys like this that make you watch college football, not Marcus Vick.

Speaking of Vick, how big an idiot do you have to be to screw up as bad as he has in the last year. He should ask for a mulligan for 2005.

I agree...this guy is an idiot. I hope he doesn't get drafted...ever. I think the guy's problem is that he thinks he'll get drafted, and, as a result, is running around doing whatever he wants.

Exactly.

Good luck trying to get into the draft with that pending gun charge Marcus. You make Christian Peter look good.
Dagger!

Think about how much change in the draft stock of Vince Young and Macrus Vick in the past 2 weeks. I remember back at the beginning of the season, there was actually more hype on Vick than Young.

With that all said, I don't think either is going to be a great/good NFL QB.

Okay, okay, okay...

You're a GM for a team and you have to draft either Marcus Vick OR Ryan Leaf's brother who played for Oregon this year.

Who do you take?

Trade the pick for a bag of footballs and move down the board to get some back-up OL. :lol:

Watch where this is going or I am going to start whoopin butt and taking names later. Brady is still young, he will be alright... I hope. I would rather see Dennis get the spot and not do any of this stupid two QB. Marcus Vick is just a retard.

All right, we have concensus--Marcus Vick is a Dupid stick.

Who are some of the other good prospects this year?

Reggie McNeil has some potential but late second round is where I see him going. Possible next Randel El. Came on big as a freshman (beat #1 OU) but hasn't done much to impress late in his career.

I am no Mel Kiper Jr. but I don't see Reggie McNeal going that early if at all. Late second day if he does get drafted.

I agree, Reggie will go later. The kid didn't even fight injury to play in his last game against Texas... instead he stayed on the sideline and spoke on his cell phone and waved a white towel every now and then.

I'd pass on that kind of competitive spirit...

Vick is rivaling Lawrence Phillips and Rashaan Salaam for the biggest football screw up of all time. and he still has a whole year of college eligibility! at least the other two guys waited to FINALLY screw up until after they had already made a little pro money in the NFL. what a doofus.
peace.

He's not exactly an angel.
