2008 NFL Draft: Looking Ahead
If you are in a dynasty league and your season is over, you are looking ahead to some of the college talent that is coming out this season. There are a number of impact players in this year’s draft, which is good news for dynasty teams that finished near the bottom.
QB Brian Brohm, Louisville
Brohm was the top rated quarterback coming into this season and he performed very well this season. While he didn’t quite have the senior season that some people projected, he’s still a sure fire first rounder who could very well end up going in the top five. Like any rookie quarterback, he’d be a long-term project but he surely has very good promise.
RB Darren McFadden, Arkansas
McFadden finished second in the Heisman after a huge junior season. While he’d be the no-brainer favorite to win the Heisman next season, everyone expects him to jump into the draft this year. He’s a very explosive running back who could come in and be a stud right away in the NFL. He will most likely be the first pick in most dynasty drafts this coming year.
WR Limas Sweed, Texas
Sweed is a big wide receiver with long arms who should make a team happy somewhere in the first round of the draft. At just at shade under 6-foot-5, Sweed is a player with nearly limitless potential. Many scouts feel he should be a good fit on the NFL level. He had some injury trouble in his senior season that could scare off a few teams.
TE John Carlson, Notre Dame
Despite Notre Dame’s pitiful season, Carlson is considered by many to be the best tight end in the draft. While he isn’t expected to be selected before the end of the first round or the beginning of the second round, he’s a player who could step in and play right away. His measurements at the NFL combine will be crucial and could make the difference between him going in the first round or him going in the third round.
