Just a few kick returners we might have a shot at getting in the 2010 draft.

-Jacoby Ford--WR-Clemson

personally my favorite returner, he is a senior from clemson, and lines up with spiller to return kicks and punts. he is 5'10, 185 lbs and is faster than trindon holliday, who runs about a 4.26 40 yard dash. here is the proof. projected a 5th to 6th rd pick.

(actual race in the vid starts at about 2:25)

-Trindon Holliday-RB-LSU

Very small, Darren Sproles is a giant compared to him. at 5'5, 165 lbs, he is very fast as I already mentioned. BUT, he is way to small to do anything besides kick returns and punt returns. projected a 5th - 6th rd pick.

-Brandon James-RB/WR-Florida

He is about the same size as Sproles at 5'7 180. he runs a 4.32 40 yard dash, and returns kicks for the gators. Likely a 6th or 7th round pick. he is dealing with an ankle injury if i'm not mistaken and will not play in the sugar bowl.

(couldn't find only james' highlights so here is harvin and james highlights)

-Javier Arenas-CB-Alabama

I watch this guy every Saturday in the summer. he isn't the fastest guy in the world but can make cuts like you've never seen and breaks tackles like no1 is touching him. he stands 5'9, 195 lbs and runs about a 4.41 40 yard dash. projected a late 1st to 2nd round pick

-Dexter McCluster-RB/WR-Ole Miss

very small but when you watch him play you would think he is 6'0 just because of how he plays. he is 5'7, 170 lbs and runs a 4.37 40 yard dash.

he is projected as anywhere from a 4th to 7th rd pick.

i am riding the mccluster bandwagon until the draft. special little dude. ford hasnt impressed me as much as mccluster, but ford is a guy that could be a better pro than he was in college. ford has the wheels and enough size that if he ever put it all together (never impressed with his hands) he could be a legit #1 wr. mccluster might be a welker or sproles type, small shifty wr/rb with great return skills.

I really hope that one of my alma mater's own gets on with the Panthers next year.

Andre Roberts, 5'11" 185 WR

Runs a 4.37 40,

He has 285 carreer receptions for 3743 yds and 37 tds, 83 punt returns for 1160 yds and 3 tds.

4 year starter. His best season was last year when he had 95 catches for 1334 yds, and 14tds. This year he had 77 for 792 and 7 TDs.

Last year he had 9 catches for 153 and a td at then #22 Clemson, ans 5 catches for 66 yds against Florida.

He is projected to go in the 4th-6th rounds.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
