Also, i dont know if this means anything to everyone here because i'm new and i havent seen whether you all respect or don't respect mel kiper, jr...cuz i know some people really don't...but he is of the opinion that clarett will fall to the late rounds, possibly even the 6th or 7th...he doesnt think clarett is a top 10 back in the draft at this point because hes out of shape and what-not

Note, see where Mel had Julius Jones rated last year, [i believe it was 6th] it was much lower than I had him rated I had him as the 3rd best back in the draft so when it comes to back's it isn't Mel's strong position although I really like what he does.

I agree with Dasael on this whole thing I feel Clarett will be an outstanding back and is a victom of college and NFL higharchey cashing in on these kid's.
