Curiousity

  • I was browsing through the draft selectees and noticed that most were from the 07 and 08 classes, with some 09's thrown in there. Looking at just the first round, I noticed that there were some highly ranked guys. I also noticed about four former two star players drafted in that same first round. That is truly astonding to me. That said, my main point would be my curiousity as to where the top guys (lets just say the top 100) of the 07 and 08 draft classes are (minus the guys in this years draft of course). Are they on an NFL team now and if so, what round and pick were they selected? Are they still playing football at all? Are they in jail? Have they (god forbid) passed away or had any major medical issues? I just think it would be cool to see where these guys are, see if their high school hype translated into the college world and then to the next level...either in the NFL or life in general.

    Not sure I'm understanding the question, because every player is his own story and specific situation, but I know a lot of top '08 guys went pro as juniors as were drafted last year, like A.J. Green and Julio Jones, etc ...
