NFL Combine

Now that the 2006 Senior Bowl is over, it is time for the top NFL draft prospects to concentrate on the NFL Combine . The NFL Combine is a showcase for draft bound players from 107 universities, taking place Feb. 22-28 at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis.

Arizona State University has three players participating in the combine. Derek Hagan finished his career as a Sun Devil as possibly the best wide-receiver to ever play for ASU. Hagan is the Pac-10's all-time leader in career receptions with 258, and finished second in conference history with 3,939 career receiving yards. Derek Hagan is a very talented player with good hands and great athleticism. He could be compared to Braylon Edwards, of the Cleveland Browns this year because of his natural talent ability to take over a game. Edwards was Cleveland's first draft pick last year from the University of Michigan.

Dale Robinson is the second Sun Devil headed to the combine. Robinson was a junior transfer who I think proved to be one of the best linebackers in the country. I see Robinson being selected in the second round, perhaps by the Oakland Raiders .

Jamar Williams is the final Sun Devil headed to the 2006 NFL Combine. Williams was a three year starter as a linebacker for ASU. Williams started 35 of 48 career games, had 256 career tackles, 25 tackles were for a loss of yards, seven interceptions and six sacks. I think Williams will still be up for grabs probably until the 4th round.
