Donte Whitner was a similar size and went 8h overall.  Thing is Whitner was fluid enough to play CB if he needed to.  THomas can be a top 15 pick.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/151179</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/151179</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[keylime]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 09 Jan 2010 17:19:38 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Texas S Earl Thomas entering draft on Sat, 09 Jan 2010 06:52:38 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>sounds like he'd be worth drafting if we can get back into the first.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/151095</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/151095</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[steel88]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 09 Jan 2010 06:52:38 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Texas S Earl Thomas entering draft on Sat, 09 Jan 2010 06:00:32 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>He has a skill set similar to Eric Berry's, and he was incredibly productive this year. </p>

<p>
The main concern about him is size. Should be interesting to see if he bulks up a little before the Combine; he certainly isn't going to get taller.</p>

<p>
Probably will be a mid-1st round pick.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/151088</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/151088</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Alo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 09 Jan 2010 06:00:32 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Texas S Earl Thomas entering draft on Sat, 09 Jan 2010 04:50:02 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.draftboardinsider.com/cgi-bin/prospect.cgi?id=1089" rel="external nofollow">http://www.draftboardinsider.com/cgi-bin/p...ect.cgi?id=1089</a></p>

<p>
I am going to not comment since I am biased.  As an alum, I was shocked that Michael Huff (Oakland) has busted.  That guy was incredible in college so I'll shut up on Earl.  Texas, however, has placed several starting DBs into the NFL in the last four years:</p>

<p>
Michael Griffin (S, Titans)</p>
<p>
Cedric Griffin (CB, Vikings)</p>
<p>
Aaron Ross (CB, Giants)</p>
<p>
Tarell Brown (CB, 49ers)</p>
<p>
Nathan Vasher (CB, Bears)</p>

<p>
Quentin Jammer (Chargers) is a little older than these other guys.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/151077</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/151077</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Earl34]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 09 Jan 2010 04:50:02 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Texas S Earl Thomas entering draft on Sat, 09 Jan 2010 04:28:33 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>whats the word on this guy? he any good?</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/151071</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/151071</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[steel88]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 09 Jan 2010 04:28:33 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
