Watford drafted by AZ in 4th round

Awesome, congrats to Watford. Hope he impresses.

Cowboys took a Tribe cb...great day for our CAA teams.

Okay, Just stepped outside and the first thing I saw were a male cardinal and a female cardinal. Congrats to Watford. Hope that was a good sign - even if they did fly off.

Cardinals conference call with Earl:

Arizona needed help on the offensive line and took two guards. Also got Jonathan Cooper from UNC earlier.

JMU85 should be a happy camper to finally see JMU talent play at Arizona.

Arizona kind of loaded up but Earl will at least be there for depth and he'll get a chance to play at some point. Guys get hurt along the OL all the time and he's pretty versatile.

Interesting thought.....any NFL prospects at JMU right now? Leaving out the young guys like Reynolds.

Robertson - Probably a little small but there's a chance
Scott - Again, probably a little small and injury prone but could get a chance
Marlowe - Probably needs to gain some weight be he has 2 years to do it (hopefully w/o losing speed)
Mosley- Every time I look at this guy, I don't believe he's 285. He has to be closer to 300. He might be a BEAST.

Anybody I'm forgetting?

wow, i didn't realize this, but according to the JMU Dukes fbook page, Webb from W&M was the first player drafted this year from ANY Virginia college, and Watford the second VA player selected.

William & Mary - 114th B.W. Webb CB Cowboys
James Madison - 116th Earl Watford OG Cardinals
Virginia - 141st Oday Aboushi OG Jets
Richmond - 152nd Cooper Taylor S Giants
Virginia Tech - 171st Corey Fuller WR Lions
173rd Vinston Painter OT Broncos

UR, VT & UVA players taken after W&M and JMU players. Pretty amazing.

I'm sure Liberty & ODU players will come off the board aannnny second.:s

Lord willing!

I don't know for sure, but I would add Titus Till and Jordan Stanton to the conversation, as well. And, on the offensive side of the ball Big Josh Wells. (...and in few years Wray Fucci)

I've been banging on the table for JMU to recruit PA more and Ulrick Edmonds was there this week. VA HS football isn't as good as PA overall. Actually, it's not really close.

I hope Earl eats Cooper's lunch!

Amazing that there are not more UVa and Tech players getting drafted. Guess that says something about where their programs are at right now. Congrats to Earl!!
