Offense:
RB, Ryan Williams, McShay had him as #2 back in the draft a couple months ago. I think he may slide. If we had a 3rd round pick he would be a nice pickup. Very talented player, likely to go in the 2nd at the latest.

RB, Darren Evans. NOt expected to go high, would be a good late round pick. Tough runner & all around player, not a game breaker & may lack speed.

C, Beau Warren: Old Hog Don Warren's son, he is undersized but may be well suited to a zone scheme as he moves well. Likely 7th round or UDFA.

Defense:
John Graves, DT. Undersized as a DT, will have to play DE & would be ideal in a 3-4 as he could put on lbs. to his 278 lb. frame. Projected to go as high as the 5th. I think he'll be a really good player nfl player in 2-3 years.

Rock Charmichael, CB. A solid corner, playmaker & good tackler. Would be a good depth/teams pickup in the 5th or later if he's there.

There are a few more but these are the best & they're all good character, solid team players.

Besides Hall and Vick what current VT players are even any good? Maybe Flowers? Royal is decent I guess. Not trying to diss VT but they really dont put out great players historically in the NFL..

That's true, of course Bruce Smith was pretty good in his day. VT players in the nfl are usually decent starters or reserves, not stars or big names. Guys like John Engelberger, Jake Grove & Pearson Prioleau have had nice careers, but outside of their teams' fans, nobody much knows about them. There are plenty of VT players in the nfl though.

You notice in the list it's mainly late round guys. Our skins have mainly late round picks w/5 from rounds 5-7, so some of these guys might be considered. Of course it's great to get starters or star players in the late rounds, but typically you have to be happy if those picks make the team & provide depth & spec. teams.

I just realized that I didn't include Tyrod Taylor, QB, or Andre Smith, TE. Both those guys will make a roster, w/Tyrod it will be interesting to see if he plays qb or wr, but I think he will make it, at least for a little while.
