Sleepers

[HarveyWallbangers]

I haven't studied the prospects much, so it would be cool if the guys following the draft gave us a sleeper at each position. Somebody that isn't projected to be a 1st or 2nd round pick. Preferrably, somebody that fits our schemes.

Here are some sleepers I like (albeit without a ton of research):

QB Rhett Bomar
OT Lydon Murtha
DT Sammie Lee Hill, Chris Baker
CB Mike Mickens, Kevin Barnes

[The_Dude]

Will Johnson, DT/DE Michigan - Same build as Jarron Gilbert, benched 225 47 times at Pro Day

Everette Pedescleaux, DT/DE, Northern Iowa - Big guy that is a good athlete

Vaughn Martin, DT - Packers have been looking at Canadian player because big guys like him are hard to find.

TJ Lang, OT, Eastern Michigan - Athletic OT

Gerald Cadogan, OT, Penn State - OT that could play either on the right side or the left side.

Tyrell Sutton, RB, Northwestern - Good vision and is quick.

Chris Pressley, FB, Wisconsin - Could be a decent fit since we are one of the few teams that run out of the I-Formation with the FB leading. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6uuVVTLmHA

Harvey has 2 of my sleepers (Murtha and Hiil), so here's some other possibilities:

Roy Miller/DT/Texas http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1123389

Mid-rounder who could be a good fit as a backup NT. Very productive player against top competition

By all accounts, Mike Mickens was a dominate corner in college and has all of the workout numbers to go with it. I like him best on your list.

The one DT has the character concerns but looks like a great athlete. The other is a great character guy with good athletic ability. Both seem like good prospects.

I like this kid too: http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=61515&draftyear=2009&genpos=rb

I saw him play in the New Mexico bowl. Kind of reminds me of Marion Barber. I'd love to have him.

1. Jonathan Casillas - OLB Wisconsin
2. Matt Shaughnessy - DE Wisconsin
3. I agree with the Chris Pressley statement - pro style offense and he can block.
3. I'd also love to see Kraig Urbik (G - Wisconsin) drafted to play guard and move Colledge to tackle.

Yeah, I'm a Badger homer.

I think urbik is going to be a very solid player if he's selected by the right team

I'm not sure how well he fits into our zone blocking scheme

But he's a student of the game, a great leader, and incredibly intense

Wisconsin will miss him and he will IMO have a NFL Career

I see Urbik ending up with a team like Pittsburgh. Casillas is kind of small. Not sure Shaughnessy has the agility to play OLB. Pressley would be a possibility.

There wasn't a lot of material in the you-tube, but what little was there suggested that he can see holes in the interior line and cut to attack them quickly.

TT just said you take players regardless of position and while I could see Urbik with Pitt imagine a line of Colledge - Urbik - Spitz - Sittion - one of the OT's. That's something that would be fun to watch grow over the years.

Casillas and Shaughnessy just make plays. Casillas can cover, move in space and has good hands; I could see him as a solid back-up ILB. Shaughnessy just knows how to get to the QB and I could certainly see him as a pass-rushing OLB.

Pressley would be a fun pick and I think an upgrade at FB. I'd also love to see Beckum picked and taking Humphrey's spot on the roster.

If we draft him, this'll be his nickname:

Mike "Any-Relation-to-Terry?" Mickens.
