I'd say Carnell Williams, but that seems too easy for one of yours.

Maybe I should go with Antrel Rolle instead.

WSUCougar 03-14-2006 03:57 PM

w00t

WSUCougar 03-14-2006 03:57 PM

It was a quickie

Coffee Warlord 03-14-2006 03:59 PM

Beat me to it. Bah.

rafini 03-14-2006 03:59 PM

Cadillac Williams

5th pick in 2005. Others were in reverse order for years, Rivers (4th, 2004) etc.

My vote is Carnell Williams as well :dito:

Nope

TazFTW 03-14-2006 04:08 PM

1,3,5 are Players drafted from Auburn.

AlexB 03-14-2006 04:10 PM

DeMarcus Ware

WSUCougar 03-14-2006 04:10 PM

Nope, but a good thought.

Carlos Rogers

BuffaloHuskey 03-14-2006 04:10 PM

WSUCougar 03-17-2006 10:53 AM

Hmm. With Aikman I thought you might be going with an RB/RB, RB/QB, QB/QB pattern. Guess not.

rafini 03-17-2006 01:24 PM

Alright, a hint. Think Heisman.

The last five Heisman Trophy winners who were also No. 1 overall draft picks.

WSUCougar 03-17-2006 01:44 PM

Miami 2
Mississippi
Nebraska
Notre Dame
Ohio State 3
Oklahoma 2
Penn State 2
South Carolina
Stanford 2
Tampa
Tennessee
Tennessee State
Texas 2
UCLA
USC 3
Utah
Virginia Tech 2
Washington

JeeberD 03-17-2006 02:14 PM

Tenn St would actually be Too Tall Jones, right? Sweetness
went to school somewhere in Mississippi, I think...

WSUCougar 03-17-2006 02:28 PM

Jackson State

And Lee Roy Selmon didn't go to Tampa (although he did in the pros).

rafini 03-17-2006 02:29 PM

Yeah, I got a few wrong. And after looking there were 4-5 that I can't believe I didn't get.

st.cronin 03-17-2006 02:34 PM
