SMU in the Draft?

Post by D »

Haven't seen anything about Raymon, Tracy, Austin or any others in the draft previews. Anybody know how they have done in camps this spring and whether they have a shot at being drafted?

Raymon Brown should get picked in the late rounds, and there's a (perhaps remote) chance that Adami will get picked up, probably in the last round. Tracy Hart will get a free agent look, and it's possible Rodnick Phillips will, too, although his lack of overpowering size or breakaway speed means he'll be hard-pressed to make a team. Another former SMU player trying to latch on somewhere this summer: Kelsey Adams.

Don't forget about Pennington, he will probably be looked over in the draft, but has a good chance of being picked up as a free agent. Jeff is perfect FB size and is an awesome blocker. Good luck, Jeff.

I hope someone gives Pennington a chance. He has a great work ethic and could block in the NFL.

True - Pennington is a great guy, and if anyone deserves a chance, it's him. I'm afraid the speed issue might get him caught in a numbers game if he gets a look someplace, but he does block like a runaway train.

Also, Bandy has the size to play. Here's hoping he gets a fair shake.

Does Rodnick Phillips have a chance? When he was (I think) a sophomore, he ran back a kickoff against New Mexico 99 yards for a score. Ever since then, people have said he's too slow. Bet UNM doesn't think he's slow. Anyone know his speed? Good kid - I'd like to see him in the NFL!

I believe that was his freshman year. The reason I remember that is I had a roommate that would not stop bragging about how he blocked for him all the way down....
