Draft Digest: Wednesday Night College Football


We have two MAC games tonight in Buffalo at Miami (OH) and
Central Michigan at Ball State. Players to keep your eye on for the 2010 NFL Draft:

Buffalo at Miami (OH):
WR Naaman Roosevelt, Buffalo - Roosevelt has decent size at around 6-0 190 pounds, but does a good job running routes and get in and out of his breaks. He is a player in the NFL that can play in the slot as well on the outside and will come in to the NFL as a number three receiver and could become a number two receiver down the road. Right now looks like he will be a 5th round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.

S Mike Newton, Buffalo – Newton is an in the box type safety and has good speed and size at 5-11 200 pounds. This season so far has 71 tackles, a sack and an interception. He needs to get better in coverage, and should be a late round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft or will get signed as a free-agent.

***RB James Starks, Buffalo – Injured and hasn’t played this season but someone that will be getting a look from NFL Scout at Buffalo pro day if he doesn’t get invited to the NFL combine.

Central Michigan at Ball State:
QB Dan LeFevour, Central Michigan – One NFL Scout told me that they had LeFevour as their second overall senior quarterback. He has had an outstanding senior season and career for Central Michigan and will get a chance to go to an All-Star game and the NFL Combine where his true final grade will be found out. He is a very good athlete and also is an accurate passer, the question mark is his arm strength. I think when it all said and done he is a 3rd round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, with a good All-Star week showing and a good combine could move up into the 2nd round.

WR Bryan Anderson, Central Michigan – Like LeFevour Anderson has had an outstand career at Central Michigan. He is a big, physical receiver at 6-5 215 pounds, with good hands the question mark is his straight line speed and we will have to see what that is when we get a clock on him. If he can be in the low 4.5 rang he could be a 3rd round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.
