The Inspiring Story of Draft Prospect Martel Van Zant

This guy seems like a great story. Wouldn't mind giving him a shot, personally I think he would be a special teams demon. From what I've seen people with the odds stacked against them can do extraordinary things and this guy looks like the type that could follow that trend. If anything he would be an inspiration to his teammates though I bet that he's hoping to accomplish more then that. Anyway heres a few places where you can learn all about Martel.

ESPN - For Van Zant, it's more than just the injury issue - NFL

YouTube - Martel Van Zant - Arete Honors For Courage In Sports
YouTube - Martel Van Zant at Big 12 Media Day
YouTube - Overcoming the Odds: Oklahoma State Football
YouTube - Martel Van Zant

Either way, I hope that this thread can make enough noise to get the Redskins to consider him in the later rounds of the draft and considering what we did to Jim Fassel makes me wonder if we can do the same type of thing for Martel (in a good way).
