NFL Draft I

Adrian McPherson, who is looking for a second chance after theft and gambling charges bounced him from college football. While some appear ready to offer McPherson another opportunity, we had a few emails, including one from a Nebraskan, compare his misdeeds to that of Phillips, a former Cornhuskers running back and NFL transient who had a career marred by arrests and emotional outbursts.
On other subjects, the entire state of Arkansas – and probably most of the states that include college teams in the Southeastern Conference – wrote in to extol the talent of Arkansas quarterback (and soon to be wide receiver or tight end) Matt Jones. Apparently, it was the rest of the world sleeping on the kid, not anyone who had ever actually seen him play. We're guessing the NFL scouts who went to his games (and didn't see his super workouts coming) don't count.
