LAS VEGAS DRAGONS DRAFT
The Second Draft for Jay Zippo. He netted 4 starters last year in Sexton, Dunn, Wooden and Taylor. No trades were made. Mike MArtz was very active in the draft as well.
1.13 WR A. Holt - 6'0 192 North Carolina OVR: 81
2nd Cousin to Torry Holt, Anthony Holt is one of the best all around WR's to come out of the draft in years. In the Mold of Marvin Harrison he runs great routes, has good hands and is not afraid to go over the middle. At North Carolina he was an all-american, and had multiple awards through out his career.
2.13 OLB J.Garrett - 6'4 264 Tennessee OVR: 80
Garrett dropped in the draft due to his combine. His less then impressive tackling and agility test made him go from a top 15 to a middle 2nd round. Garrett will have an opportunity to start immediately. Garrett lead his team in tackles at Tennessee and was MVP of the Tampax Manhole Bowl.
3.13 OG D.Black - 6'3 311 Washington OVR: 78
The offensive line overhaul continues as Martz's influence begins to take shape. With the 5 out of 6 wins to end last season, the main ingrediant was the improved play of the offensive line. Black will most likely be a day one starter, and will improve the line dramatically as he gains experience.
4.13 WR D.Potts - 6'1 204 Texas A&M OVR: 72
WR Potts is an all american sprinter. Tried out for the olympics and missed it by a fraction. Hands and route capabilities are in question but his acceleration and speed put him in the D.Hall / Stallworth catagory.
5.13 FS D.Neal - 5'11 204 McNeese St. OVR: 75
Neal has very good athleticism, but lacks experience and is raw. Will be a great special teamer and possibly get a chance to via a starting job if he improves in the nest 2 years.
6.13 OT J.Carter - 6'7 308 Arizona OVR: 70
J.Carter was drafted because of his stregnth and Run Blocking skills. Most short yardage, goalline situations will have Carter in. He has a long way to go to start with his poor pass blocking skills and non experience.
7.13 FB B.Kindle - 6'2 262 Arizona St. OVR: 75
Kindle will be a special teamer with little to no chance of starting, Utecht has the starting position at FB and most likely will not relinquish it with his talent.
