No one and done phenoms or future franchise cornerstones. There are also no clear choices for the top pick. Draft boards have continuously changed and differ from each website.

Shawn Petty was a scout team linebacker for Maryland when last season kicked off. A true freshman, the 6-foot-1, 235-pounder from Greenbelt, Md., was just trying to get into a groove in college and get accustomed to the differences in speed and intensity of the college game. By November, he was the Terrapins starting quarterback. Injuries to four other signal callers forc... read more...
