Big fan of David Cobb. Like Tevin Coleman just a bit more

overall but Cobb is going to be a good one for some team.

Was a bit chilly out there tonight. The alternating possessions thing totally destroyed what was a good game for 3 quarters.

Im assuming I'm not the only one intrigued by Dezmin Lewis now. Had so,e great catches tonight, and he made a couple like that this week too. Met him yesterday too, and he was a real nice lad.

There are gonna be so many great late round RBs available. With Williams likely gone and Whittaker still an unknown. I jump on one.

crazy Chargers got Sproles in the 4th ten years ago. Abdullah, we would be lucky to get with our late 3rd. He'll probably go late 2nd/early 3rd at the latest

Nebraska used Ameer as a punt returner his freshman and sophomore years (13.06 yards per punt return as sophomore, Top 15 in the NCAA ahead of Tavon Austin, Odell Beckham, Justin Hardy, Phillip Dorsett etc). Then they quit using him as punt returner (probably to protect him from injury), but kept using him as a kick returner (28.00 yds per kick return last year, top 10 in the NCAA..only big name ahead of him was Mizzou's Marcus Murphy with 29.65, and Murphy had a big kickoff return today in the Senior Bowl)
