Any chance a couple of our guys get drafted today?

See the last few posts of the “Post season Awards” thread. Juwan Green and Eli Mencer seem to have the best shot.

So far (2:40) a tight end from Dayton is the only FCS player drafted (3rd round)

Only five FCS players picked in the draft - Chinn of So. Illinois, Trautman of Dayton, DiNucci of James Madison,  Coulter of Rhode Island, and Tuszka of NoDak St

Mencer to Seahawks. Jarren Williams yo Arizona.  No word on juwan.

Green to Atlanta 

[Eli]

Congrats to all of em! Hope they stick!

Can't remember us ever having three at one time in a camp.  Hopefully they make it to camp and onward.  Good luck.

THIS is just awesome!  They all deserve it I'd say. Looks like Griffin Clancy may sign as an undrafted free-agent according to what has been said.  Great for them, the program and recruiting.

Who do we think has the best chance of cracking a roster?

[Dane96]

Honestly, they all do based on special teams.  But if I had to guess, Juwan.

Great to see Juwan with the Falcons. Looking forward to (hopefully) seeing him at the Benz! RISE UP!

 I agree that special teams might be a spot for Mencer. Although he had great skills at the CAA level I just don’t think he has the size or elite speed to be an edge rusher in the NFL. His ball hawking surely caught some attention. Williams...who knows? He certainly can play. Green has great hands and some legit speed. Maybe not a deep threat in the NFL, but a slot/possession receiver? Could happen. Kind of a Victor Cruz. It would be great to see any or all of them make a roster. I’m rooting for them all.

Not the NFL but Griffin Clancy has signed with the Albany Empire of the National Arena League
