BamaGrad03 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 I see some draft boards have McNeill a possible first rounder...or early 2nd. Is that about right? I guess it has to be or he wouldnt leave early. But if he goes in the 1st, that means AU will send 4 guys in the 1st round. Thats pretty impressive. Does JC go in the mid rounds? What about Eddins?

woods1110 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 IMO, I don't think Eddins gets drafted...I think if he does, he goes real late...I would love for him to go high because he is one of my favorite, but I somehow don't see that happening. I think JC goes mid rounds. You know, Tom Brady was a very late pick and look how he has done. I think JC will be a Tom Brady type QB, one that goes mid-late rounds and becomes a big time QB... BTW, I think McNeill will turn pro. I hope he doesn't because we could sure use him next year. If he does go pro, he will be a 1st rounder...

AUTaxMan 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Has McNeill declared? I think JC, although not a sure-fire NFL prospect, will be a 2-4 rounder, since there is so little QB talent in the NFL right now. As for Eddins, I just don't think he has the speed.

AUJarhead 70 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Mel Kiper has JC listed as the #3 QB. Doesn't include any undergrads, that I know of. But, I'd have to think that an Alex Smith or a Matt Leinart would be drafted pretty high, too. ESPN It's an insider article, but you can read the top paragraph. I agree with Taxman, I think JC goes in the 2-4 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 McNeil hasn't declared - but BG, I did see one projection which had him going to the Texans in the 1st round. He has good size and speed, and his back hasn't bothered him this year. OL with those abilities are at a premium in the NFL. I would break down our draft prospects in this manner: 1st Round - Carnell, Ronnie, McNeil (if he declares), maybe Carlos 2nd Round - Carlos (if he doesn't go 1st) 5-7th Rounds - Ratliff, Campbell, maybe Rosegreen, maybe Lindsey Undrafted Free Agents - Eddins, Slaughter, Langenfield, S. Daniels, Phillip Yost Going on to pursue other opportunities - Derrick Graves, Bret Holliman, Jeremy Ingle, Sam Rives, Mayo Sowell, Donnay Young Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaGrad03 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Author Share Posted January 7, 2005 I think Rosegreeen might have a shot at 4th or 5th round. I dont think Slaughter or Yost will get a shot at making a squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Yost may just based on his ability to kick through the end zone - most NFL teams have a kickoff only kicker now . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerinBham 1 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Kiper predicted Campbell to go in the late 2nd or early 3rd round. I hope that McNeil will stay but if he can go in the first round I would not blame him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auferg 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 I think Ingle has a shot of making a team..intelligence goes a long way as a lineman (sounds backwards, but it's true). I'm a philadelphia eagles fan and I would absolutely love it if Ronnie was still around in the late first round. Don't think it's gonna happen though.

Caveman 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Slaughter is a junior. He will be in Auburn next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aucowgirl98 0 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 My Draft picks for Auburn go like this. 1. Carlos Rogers 2. Ronnie Brown 3. Carnell "Cadillac" Williams And if he is lucky and the is soem NFL team out there that needs a kicker. Yost. Of course I am sure that more of our seniors will get picked up by NFL teams, but as for the tops Rogers, Brown, Willams go in the first round.

mcgufcm 4,107 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 carlos is going to be that guy who just keeps rising on the draft board. i'd bet my apartment on that. if he runs at combines, he'll blow pretty much every other db off the charts. the man can fly. he, carnell, and ronnie are first round locks. marcus is going to slip a little when teams get to look him over b/c back problems like he had just don't go away overnight. it really would benefit him to come back and prove once and for all that it is not an issue. if you don't think past injuries can hurt you, just ask demarco. he was listed as a 2nd round guy and didn't even get drafted b/c of his knees. jason is going to go first day. i've said that since mid-season. he's going to impress people with his offensive knowledge (ie. he'll finally get to benefit from having 200 coordinators). danny has a shot at late rounds. junior has a shot, but his size is going to detract from him. i still think he's going to be this year's spencer johnson, undrafted to major playing time. jay is another guy like that. he could get picked up, but he's only played tackle for one year. he reminds me of a poor man's corey simon (from fsu i think). should be a fun year for auburn fans to watch the draft though.
