LOCAL PLAYERS TO FIGHT FOR NFL ROSTER SPOTS

This past weekend's NFL Draft saw very few local college products make a splash as they have in years past. Kentucky's Myron Pryor, a Defensive Tackle, was the lone Wildcat to be drafted in the 2 day, 7 round affair that is longer than 'Nam. He was taken with the 34th pick in the 6th round, 207th overall. Though he was the only wildcat drafted the signing period immediately after the draft found many local players being offered contracts and a chance to make the team as a college free agent. I have compiled a list for your viewing pleasure of what players you might see making an impact on NFL rosters next season....
