| Can't believe a Memphis Tiger was the 11th pick. Shows how much talent goes unnoticed/unseen when the team is god awful. |

and being the fact that he did go in the first round...he was noticed on a god awful team....I just wonder why none of these guys went to UT?...oh yeah...UT was busy going after J Jackson and Nu'Keese Richardson,Brice Brown and so on.

It's a cool story to see but I have a feeling he gave it his all in the combine. And those combine results don't necessarily add up to on the field. |

They are basically taking a chance on the guy because of his size and combine results. Didn't even have good stats at Memphis or that many highlights. |

Even playing on a crap team he wasn't spectacular and was drafted more for his combine numbers. He would have had those combine numbers no matter where he went to school |
