NFL Draft Watch 2009

With the college football season around the corner it’s time to look at this years crop of players that could be names mentioned come next April.  I have spent a lengthy period of time combing over each roster in division 1.  (I do not refer to it by the new name the NCAA has given it.)

Some of the players are seniors, juniors, & others have been reshirted in a prior year but are eligable to enter the 2009 draft if they choose to go that route depending on the year they have.  Many names are probably obvious while others may cause you to do some research to know who they are and what they have done.

I have come up with a list of 64 players for everybody to watch throughout the upcoming college football season.
