The NFL Supplemental draft is Thursday. 2 big names that are entering are DT Manuel Wright and WR Rosoe Crosby. I know Crosby is being looked at by the Panthers, Saints, Falcons, and Chiefs. I really want Crosby on the panthers he is really fast and i think he can make a lot of plays. Anybody know anything else about the supplemental draft?
Crosby coming out of high school was rated higher than Fitzgerald and Roy Williams. He was a top 10 prospect coming out of high school, but being drafted by the KC Royals messed him up in college football, but he is only 22
The Dolphins were interested in Wright. The report is he tanked his workout & the reps from Miami left.
im not big on Wright but i think crosby has so much potental to be a great WR, he has 4.4 speed so that is good.
Beware of Crosby....he was supposed to be the next coming and help Clemson get back to a National Championship level, but it never happened....he was injured a lot, enough to be a major concern....I wouldnt be comfortable using a very high pick on him, maybe a 6th rounder or later....
I have seen several other teams that are interested in Crosby too. Other than those two, there are very few names that are being hyped for the SD.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (blackadder)</div><div class='quotemain'>The Dolphins were interested in Wright.

Despite the fact that Wright was arrested in 2003 on three misdemeanor charges, including assault with a deadly weapon, and the fact that he had bad workouts, his agent expects him to be drafted in the second or third round. I must have missed the news where this guy was first round talent.
I want Crosby so bad, the panthers need a good #3 in 2006 because Proehl is retiring after this year. Crosby could get use to the NFL and then step in at the Slot postion where he would burn corners up
Bernie Kosar, Rob Moore, Cris Carter and Mike Wahle were picks in the supplemental draft, so good talent can be found in the supplemental draft
and for every good player taken in the Supp draft, there are 10 bad ones....sometimes a really great player becomes available, in which case, teams will forfiet future 1sts to get him, but most of the talent is flawed and the backgrounds are worse....
Crosby will get selected in the 5th or 6th round and Wright is projected to get picked in the 3rd round. There is this RB/CB/PR, Ivory McCann, who one scout clocked at 4.3 40 time. That is fast as hell. He has moves like Dante Hall. He will probly go in the 7th or undrafted and get picked up by a team

I guess he forgot the former USC OL coach is now the assistant OL coach w/ Miami & so there is someone on Saban's staff familar w/ him. I would rather Saban spend a 4th or 5th rounder on Ealy (CB from UNLV).
here is a site will anylasis of all the players in the supplemental draft http://www.nfldraftscout.com/news/index.ph...t_from=&ucat=2&
Wright was selected in the 5th round by the dolphins. No one else was selected. Please Panthers get Crosby!!!
Now I love Manny Wright....hes the greatest DT to ever come out of college football....sorry, thought I was an Eagles fan for a sec....
The only team to watch Crosby catch passes from King was the panthers, so hopefully they will sign him
