NFL Draft Class of 2010 How They're doing.......

Football players, like prostitutes, are in the business of ruining their bodies for
the pleasure of strangers.” – Merle Kessler


Defensive backs, linebackers, and Ndamukong Suh headline early rookie reviews. Last year, rookie receivers were impressive with their ball catching skills and run after catch ability. In 2010, defensive backs were drafted to cover those dynamic receivers. TJ Ward (Browns), Nate Allen (Eagles), Eric Berry (Chiefs), Morgan Burnett (Packers), Earl Thomas (Seahawks), and Cody Grimm (Bucs) are safeties who have been instinctive in their run support and coverage. Hitting, within the new NFL Guidelines, has also been in their job description. Corners Alterraun Verner (Titans), Kareem Jackson (Texans), Devin McCourty (Patriots), Chris Cook (Vikings), Joe Haden (Browns), Patrick Robinson (Saints), Perrish Cox (Broncos), and Kyle Wilson (Jets) have all shown positive signs in one of the leagues’ toughest positions. Detroit’s Suh has 4 ½ sacks in six games and has been a sideline to sideline beast in the run game.(Suh added 2 more sacks in the Redskin game for a total of 6 1/2 plus a fumble recovery TD) Teammate Jahvid Best has been the most impressive rookie back. Sam Bradford has been nothing short of amazing, leading the Rams to three wins in seven games, all the while adjusting to a bevy of new receivers, offensive line reconstruction, and Steven Jackson’s back issues.
