Prospect Profile: Shaun Bodiford
By: TFY Draft Preview
Date: Mar 17, 2006
Full Name: Shaun Bodiford School: Portland State Pos: WR
Ht: 5-11 Wt: 187 40: 4.52 Year: 4Sr
Bio: Starter the past two seasons, leading the team in receiving as a senior with 51/545/5 and 40/587/5 the prior year.

"He's earned the right to be looked at, and he's earned the right to have some snaps."
