VS 
Oregon
The Ducks made noise in the Pac
Ten during the season's first two months before hitting the skids in November,
just about the same time their top pro-prospect, Onterio
Smith, went down with
injury. Smith is a complete running
back that catches the ball well and impacts
the game as a return specialist. He has a lot of Marshall Faulk in him and
like Faulk, is a bit undersized and may struggle with injuries early into his
pro-career until he physically
matures. George Wrighster, another junior, may take advantage of a poor
crop tight
ends and throw his hat into the mix, which would not be a good
choice. An undersized pass catcher that has spent time at full back,
Wrighster's a fine athlete but needs to physically develop and improve his
blocking. Yet another junior, this time
receiver Sammie Parker, offers game
breaking skills but like his teammates, is better served staying in college
another year. Fellow wide out Keenan Howry gets an "A" for effort and
intelligence but size concerns will push him deep into the draft while Jason Willis
has the size for receiver and good hands but minimal speed. Seth McEwen is a tough and hard
working defensive
end with growth potential and a good bet in the late rounds
while pass rusher Darrell Wright plays faster than his forty time and could
project outside in a three-four alignment.
Wake Forest
The Deamon Deacs have a hard
working team and are enjoyable to watch, as we saw first hand during the first
weekend in November.
Defensive
end
Calvin Pace is one of their better
pro-prospects the school's offered in a while and we expect him to torment the Oregon quarterback all
day. Roderick Stephen, himself a solid prospect, offers a nice bookend to
Pace and will garner late round consideration. Fullback
Ovie Mughelli is
an impressive looking specimen in either pads on ordinary clothes and
a class guy. He's a little to stiff but a fine athlete with terrific power,
punch and explosion, which will help him vie for the number one slot at his
position.
