Well, the draft is over for this year folks. All and all I think the University made a great standing this year even though I'm quite surprised that Freddie and Anthony didn't get picked by any team. I wish them both all the luck in the world.

I looked around for information on reactions from the other players, however nothing has been posted as of yet.

**For those interested in Tyrone information, I have updated some information on him. Please click on the link above his picture in the sidebar.**

I'm out.

What a great player, a great scholar, and a great person. As I mentioned last night he has been drafted by the Houston Texans and I couldn't be happier for him, or the other bama players who are on the draft board.

DeMeco has a website where he put in some small snippets of how his day went yesturday, as well as what is going on today for him. It was then I realized that he's leaving us for the big game. Yeah, I suppose I knew it all along, but for whatever reason once I read about him packing up to go to Houston it really set me back a little. I guess it's one of those things about college football that you never really get used too, players come and eventually they have to go as well.

We as fans get attatched to these players, they become part of our families. I don't regret it, as little of the NFL I watch these days you can rest assured I keep an eye out for the boys from Bama and I probably always will.

I only have one thing to add...guys, never forget where you started. There are a lot of fans who are going to be rooting you on from another state other than where you are playing!

Well, yes, day two of the NFL draft has started and we are into round 5 at the moment.

Today Charlie Peprah has been chosen by the Giants, round 5, pick 158.

Mark Anderson has also been picked up by the Chicago Bears, round 5, pick 159.

Congrats guys! Freddie and Anthony are still up for the picking, so I will keep checking on it!

Well, that looks to be it for today folks. I'm quite surprised that Charlie and Freddie didn't get picked up in the 3rd round.

We'll see what tomorrow brings.

I'm out for the night!

Brodie Croyle has been drafted by the Chiefs, third round, pick number 85.

So, apparently I was way off on my prediction.

DeMeco Ryans has been drafted in the second round, 33rd pick by the Texans.

Roman Harper went shortly after to the Saints, second round, 43rd pick.

Good Luck to the both of you and of course the Crimson Nation will behind you in your future endeavors!

I'll post more picks as they come in!

Yes, I know, it's been a long time since I posted anything worth while. Sorry about that folks. Off season is play season for me and I have had some personal issues taking up time. I'm going to try to get back on track now that I'm feeling that football fever itch that I start scratching every year around this time. Starts to get warm and I know football is right around the corner.

As most are probably aware, today is the NFL draft. The University of Alabama has 7 players hoping to find themselves in the NFL.

They are as follows:

Mark Anderson
Brodie Croyle
Roman Harper
Anthony Madison
Charlie Peprah
Freddie Roach
DeMeco Ryans

We know these fellas well, and boy are we going to miss them, but our loss is some lucky NFL teams gain. I believe DeMeco Ryans will be a late first round draft pick to the Chicago Bears, but I guess we will see. Should know something within the next hour or so, and I will try and post as soon as I find out.
