Round 4: Panthers Select Brandon Hogan

[Zithers]

Aw, I wanted Davon House. Dude seems like he'd be a beast.

Oh well. ACL/Character stuff worries me but I guess he's good on the field.

Remember, Gamble used to be a WR at OSU

I don't remember that.

In fact I'm almost positive he was a corner.

Actually, I'm sure of it: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=122197

He started as a wr at OSU.

He started as a wr at OSU.

But Fox didn't convert him to a CB...Ohio St. did..

While Gamble only played three years at Ohio State, he was an integral part of the 2002 National Championship team, which went 14-0. Gamble played all 3 ways at Ohio State, earning 1st Team All-Big Ten honors, and 3rd Team All-America honors for cornerback. Gamble had 4 interceptions for the 2002 season, one of which he returned for a touchdown. Gamble was known for his game-breaking ability in all facets of the game, including defense, offense, and kick returning.

In 38 games, he started 18 times on defense and 12 times on offense (started on both offense and defense in five contests in 2002). Recorded 65 tackles (51 solos) with three stops behind the line of scrimmage, seven interceptions and 21 pass deflections. Also caught 40 passes for 609 yards (15.2 avg.), rushed six times for 68 yards (11.3 avg.) with a touchdown, returned 60 punts for 467 yards (7.8 avg.) and had 18 kickoff returns for 384 yards (21.3 avg.).

Our Secondary will now have the best dreadlocks of any team

[Soul Rebel]

gamble played both sides of the ball at osu. totally remember him playing wr as well. was actually nervous when we took him in the draft bc i wasn't sure if he was going to translate into a full time corner once he got to the nfl.

True, but Hogan was converted at WVU too, so that's the comparison I was making.

[CPF4LIFE]

loool, i was just suggesting that i think he could play both positions, its cool if they leave him at corner tho

[The_Cannon]

We've got another corner that started as a receiver in college. He's worked out pretty well. Hopefully this guy has the same kind of athleticism as Gamble.

He only played receiver during his first spring game and then once the season started he played CB. He was a QB in high school though

High school positions don't mean a thing. Most NFL players played multiple positions in high school. A lot of them probably didn't even leave the field during the game.

If you keep up with any college football team, then you should know that freshmen and sophmore players change positions all the time, so that's not a big deal at all. Probably about 1/3rd of the skill players in the NFL played QB in HS and/or were recruited as "athletes".

Wasn't Beason recruited as a FB?
