Curran-t affairs (god that was bad)
--Okey dokey, the other day (yesterday?) I mentioned LB Rennie Curran and that I would be keeping an eye out for him during the Cardinals @ Titans game. But why?
Well, when normal people get bored, they go read a book. Or they watch television. Or they stick on a video game. Or they play a game of Monopoly with someone. Things like this. This is what normal people do. So what do I do when I get bored?
I spend three days trawling through footage of Draft prospects from the 2010 class.
Exciting s**t! Constantly going back and watching the clips over and over. Watching hands. Then watching feet. Then hands again. Then hips. Then the first step. And so on....
So, I thought for a change I would actually share the fruits of my boredom killing with you by presenting a list of players that I picked out from the 2010 class, who I think might go on to do rather well. Maybe this year, maybe next. Who knows? I'll be keeping a file with the names in to periodically check on over the coming few seasons. So here they are, 48 players presented in the order in which they were selected:
1st round:
Trent Williams: OT, 4th overall to Washington Redskins.
Eric Berry: S, 5th overall to Kansas City Chiefs.
Russell Okung: OT, 6th overall to Seattle Seahawks.
Tyson AluAlu: DE/DT, 10th overall to Jacksonville Jaguars.
Ryan Matthews: RB, 12th overall to San Diego Chargers.
Brandon Graham: DE/LB, 13th overall to Philadelphia Eagles.
Mike Iupati: G, 17th overall to San Fransisco 49ers.
Maurkice Pouncey: G, 18th overall to Pittsburgh Steelers.
Sean Weatherspoon: LB, 19th overall to Atlanta Falcons.
Demaryius Thomas: WR, 22nd overall to Denver Broncos.

7th round:
Dekoda Watson: LB, 217th overall to Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Syd’Quan Thompson: CB, 225th overall to Denver Broncos.
Sean Canfield: QB, 239th overall to New Orleans Saints.
Jeff Owens: DT, 243rd overall to Philadelphia Eagles.
Undrafted:
Micah Johnson: LB, currently signed by Miami Dolphins.
Danario Alexander: WR, currently signed by St. Louis Rams.
How many of them will make it big? I think only god (and possibly Bill Belichick & Scott Pioli) knows that. How many of them will even make a teams roster by next season? There are no guarantees in life (except toasters) so I can't say for sure, but I think all of these names listed here have a chance to go on and be very productive players.
I'll be back tomorrow with a run down of the week ahead in pre-season (sort of). Till then,
Have a great day everyone.
