Calvin Johnson to enter NFL draft

**AngloVike** · 01-08-2007, 03:19 PM

I'll admit to not knowing much on Jarrett and Johnson first-hand, so I'm relying on what I find online and the media reports. The stuff I have found so far suggests that Johnson is the better option in terms of character issues.
Trouble is a player like him seems to good to be true to still be around at #7.

We need to dig up some dirt on Calvin Johnson so he slips to #7 ;D But not too much, or Childress won't pick him either. :P

If you're 6'5 235, run a 4.4 forty, a 45 inch vertical jump, and catch everything thrown your way, you're going to excel at the next level.

He'll create mismatches all over the field, and he can block, and has a great attitude.

If he's on the board at 7 and we pass on him I'll be furious.

I'll be more than furious! I'll flip a dick!

I just wonder what we'd all be talking about or wanting if Plax actually came to Minny.

How many great athletes were a shoe-in for excelling at the next level?
And didn't?

I WANT TEDD GINN JR why u guys hate him soo much he is a burner him n troy n a free agent guy come on?? that will give CT a 1500 yard seasonn we need to pick a very fast back for a change of past like a brian westbrook! he wont be the starter just a tool

I don't think anybody hates Ted Ginn Jr.

I myself has been talking about drafting him earlier on. But I as others has maybe realised that he is not worthy of a 7th pick. What he lacks most is the hight and strength that some of the others have

That last quote reminds me of a current NFL WR, when he was coming out of college, ALA.....
Steve Smith...

Reminds me of Peter Warrick.
Or Desmond Howard.
